In Own the Arena Katrina Adams gives us an insider's tour into the engine rooms of tennis, business, diplomacy, friendship and family. Not surprisingly, she does it with the grace, style, and presence that she brings into every room she enters. I have never known anyone who is as pulled together as Kat. If I didn't like and admire her so much I would find it very annoying. -- Mary Carillo, Sportscaster, NBC and HBO
