I am not a fan of Kathy Griffin, but after reading her book, which I borrowed from the library and did not buy, I find I have a bit more respect for her. She did not have it easy in a business where men dominate her field and a lot of men, like Bill Maher, did not make her all that comfortable as a fellow comic.
