Behind Every Great Man is a Great Woman: The Celebrated Heroines of The Astronaut Wives Club
Google ‘American heroes’ and you will likely yield results that show more men than women. Bestselling author Lily Koppel’s The Astronaut Wives Club shares the story of not the typical heroes—but of their wives. In particular, the ‘Astrowives’ of America’s Mercury Seven, the country’s first human space voyagers.
While their husbands trekked through the vast unknown, the wives waded through unchartered waters as well—overnight celebrity status, living under a microscope with reporters outside their doors, becoming fashion icons—and also lived with uncertainty about the strength of their marriage and the safety of their husbands.
As the true story of these heroines unfolds, we see that the Astrowives formed the Astronaut Wives Club to meet regularly and offer one another support and friendship, and were each other’s arm candy at late-night gala events. From potluck spreads including desserts like Moon Cake to having tea with Jackie Kennedy, the book shows peers into the wives’ individuality behind their united front for the reporters—and the world.
The wives have been friends for 50 years and counting. It’s safe to say they’re the real Golden Girls.
Peek into the untold stories of these women, their friendships, and the American identity, and get more insight from the author who tirelessly researched and wrote to share them in our interviews with Lily Koppel on ID Radio.

They Say a Photo is Worth a Thousand Words…Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is Proof
It all started with a collection of vintage found photographs. Author Ransom Riggs’ hobby inspired him to write Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, catapulting him onto the New York Times bestseller list for over 52 weeks. And CNN vetted for the book, claiming that those who are looking for the next Harry Potter won’t have to look any further.
With a mix of photography and fiction, Riggs concocts a tale of sixteen-year-old Jacob and his exploration of an island off the coast of Wales. The chilling tale takes form when Jacob comes across the now-abandoned Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and its dark history.
But there are so many questions. Why were these children quarantined on a desolate island? What made them so peculiar? Were they dangerous? And even more haunting: are they still alive?
Treat yourself to the re-release of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs (the paperback version includes the first chapter of the upcoming sequel !) and take an adventure in the shadows of this story. Our conversations with the author, his inspiration for the book, and much more are now hitting the airwaves through ID Radio.

Author Gives Up Right to Remain Silent in Echoes of My Soul
As one of the country’s most respected trial lawyers (who has never lost a felony trial!), author Robert K. Tanenbaum shares a powerful insider’s account of the Career Girls Murders in Echoes of My Soul.
Tanenbaum shares trial transcripts and never-before-seen crime photos as he chronicles the landmark case that changed the American justice system forever. From the imprisonment of the unjustly accused George Whitmore, Jr., to highlighting those who tracked down the real killer, and to the resulting Miranda Rights we all know today (whether it’s from watching Cops or just about any movie!), Echoes of My Soul is a tell-all of what is being referred to as ‘one of the most intense manhunts of our time’ finding who was responsible for the historic double-murder in 1963.
Read the powerful story by the former homicide bureau chief for the New York D.A.’s Office and the former Deputy Chief Counsel for the Congressional Committee investigation into the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and listen to our interviews with him on ID Radio.
