What Happened to Shere Hite?

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Nov 16, 2023

German author Shere Hite made waves when her reporting on female sexuality and pleasure, The Hite Report: A Nationwide Study of Female Sexuality, was published in 1976. But after skyrocketing to fame in the '70s, Hite disappeared from public life. A new documentary, "The Disappearance Of Shere Hite," from director Nicole Newnham explores the life of Hite. Newnham joins us to discuss the film, which is in theaters tomorrow.
