Corinne Low and her new book, Having It All

When asked about the burnout that women face both at home and at work, Corinne Low told WUSA9, "I started this story back seventy years ago. We went from a model of division of responsibility where husbands worked in the market and the wives took care of a zillion-and-one things at home, to a model where gender roles have converged in the workplace. Women can now play the same role in the market as men; they can earn as much as men, but they haven't converged at home. Men do the same amount of housework today as they did in 1970."
