"What Was Ralph Nader Thinking?" New Biography of the Consumer Advocate and Independent Candidate

San Francisco, CA, May 22, 2008 --(PR.com)-- If you’ve ever been in a car accident, or dared to eat a hot dog, you may be alive because of Ralph Nader. Honored by Time magazine as “One of the 100 Most Influential Americans of the Twentieth Century,” Ralph Nader battles the corporations that rip off consumers, poisons their water, pollutes their air, and sells them unsafe cars.

So why is Nader so beloved by college students and loathed by their parents?

Author Jürgen Vsych (pronounced Yurgen VY-zick), Nader’s 2008 and 2004 campaign filmmaker and photographer, won the Prince Charles Trust Award for her film Pay Your Rent, Beethoven. Her 30 films have aired on PBS, Channel Four in the UK, and at 41 film festivals in 28 countries. Vsych is the author of The Woman Director, the first autobiography of an American female film director. She lives in San Francisco.
