  <about><![CDATA[Stephanie Elizondo Griest has mingled with the Russian Mafiya, polished propaganda in China, and belly danced with rumba queens in Cuba. These adventures inspired her award-winning memoir &lt;em&gt;Around the Bloc: My Life in Moscow, Beijing, and Havana &lt;/em&gt;(Villard/Random House, 2004) and guidebook &lt;em&gt;100 Places Every Woman Should Go &lt;/em&gt; (Travelers' Tales, 2007). Washington Square Press/Simon &amp;amp; Schuster will publish her second memoir, &lt;em&gt;Mexican Enough: My Life Between The Borderlines&lt;/em&gt;, in August 2008. She recently won the 2007 Richard J. Margolis Award for Social Justice for her work. Visit her website at www.aroundthebloc.com&quot;]]></about>
