LYNETTE “SQUEAKY” FROMME: The Manson Family, and the Life Behind the Headlines
About this audiobook
What drove Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme from a troubled young woman in California to one of the most recognizable figures associated with Charles Manson?
SQUEAKY FROMME: The Manson Family, and the Life Behind the Headlines takes readers beyond the famous photograph of a woman raising a handgun toward President Gerald Ford in Sacramento in 1975. It follows Fromme’s journey from her early years and meeting with Manson to her life within his circle, her unwavering loyalty, the dramatic Ford assassination attempt, her federal trial, decades behind bars, escape from prison, and eventual release in 2009.
But the story does not end with prison.
This book examines the woman behind the headlines and the complicated legacy surrounding her name. What is firmly established by the historical record? What remains disputed? And how did a single moment in September 1975 shape the rest of her life?
Discover the story of Squeaky Fromme—a life marked by loyalty, crime, imprisonment, controversy, and a legacy that continues to attract attention decades later.
