“Bruce Springsteen really got any creative person's dream career, and his good-heartedness and good-spiritedness are part of it: both because it made the people behind the scenes want to do their jobs that much better, but it also means that he connects with an audience in a way that holds them close.”

American writer, journalist, and lawyer

Elizabeth Lee Wurtzel was an American writer, journalist, and lawyer. She is best known for Prozac Nation, her confessional memoir published when she was 27, and for being seen as a voice of Generation X. Her writing often examined her own experiences with depression, addiction, work, and relationships. In the 1990s, her books helped fuel the rise of confessional writing and the personal memoir. Later in life, she briefly worked as an attorney before she died of breast cancer.
