Book Review

Ivy League Stripper (1995)

EW's GRADE
B+

Details Writer: Heidi Mattson; Genres: Memoir, Nonfiction; Publisher: Arcade

The author, Heidi Mattson — a flat-chested working-class refugee from rural Maine — put herself through Brown University by taking it off. Anti-intellectual to the core, she writes entertainingly about her adventures in Ivy League Stripper, but gets in over her head by trying to philosophize about gender and society. B+
