 We're discussing Judy Blume's career and legacy with Rochelle Bergstein. She's a lifestyle writer, editor, and author of several books, including her latest, The Genius of Judy, How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us. We're also hearing from you. Ashanti emails, I have always been a fan of Judy Blume, starting with Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret. In my mid-20s, my friend brought me fudge-a-mania, and that was hands down the best gift I received for my birthday.
