Gretchen Elizabeth Carlson (born June 21, 1966) is an American television commentator and New York Times best-selling author of Be Fierce: Stop Harassment and Take Your Power Back. Carlson was crowned the 1989 Miss America while representing her native state of Minnesota. She graduated from Stanford University with honors before embarking on a career in television. Gaining experience as anchor and reporter for several local network affiliates, she joined CBS News as a correspondent in 2000 and became the co-host of the Saturday edition of The Early Show. In 2005, she moved to Fox News Channel and became the co-host of the morning show Fox & Friends along with Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade.

Her autobiography, Getting Real, was published in 2015 by Viking. Her contract with Fox News expired on June 23, 2016. On July 6, she filed a lawsuit against then Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes claiming sexual harassment.

Illustrations. Minor wear noted. New York Bound Books specialized in Local History (New York City & Environs): Manuscripts, Atlases & Maps, Prints, and Ephemera. Once upon a time, not so long ago, there was a bookstore that was the best place — often the only place — to find anything on just about everything that had been written, photographed or sketched in regard to New York City. New York Bound did some bounding of its own after it came into being in 1976. It started out at the South Street Seaport, then moved to a fourth-floor apartment on West 54th Street and, finally, to the lobby of 50 Rockefeller Plaza. There, it died in 1997. The landlord declined to renew the lease, and the shop owners simply didn’t have another move in them. Customers lost little time picking through the store’s inventory of more than 5,000 books. Catalogue Sixteen is a fine, and rare, surviving example of their stock The Table of Contents addresses Antiquarian, Fine & Rare; Architecture, City Planning & Real Estate; Art & Photography; Guidebooks; High Life & Low Life; History; The Immigrant Experience; Journalism; Literature, Places: City & State; Politics and Government; Restaurants & Hotels; Theater, Transportation & Public Works; and Young New Yorkers: Children's Books.
