For decades, Katie Couric has been a household name in America, as one of the nation’s leading news personalities.  She is admired for her rise from local TV station ‘gofer’ to the first solo female anchor of a weekday evening newscast.  Because of her vast audience, it is expected that her new book, due out later this month, will be a big seller.  It’s about advice.  Advice she has lived by throughout her life.  Tidbits of her counsel include “Let ‘em know you’re there” and “Don’t let the turkeys get you down.”  Other gems that are Couric’s rules to live by are “Trust your gut” and “Sometimes you’re the pigeon, sometimes you’re the statue.”
