woman of the pits: shattering the glass ceilings in financial markets by mara koppel.october 1998

No, I'm pretty sure thats not it. It was an autobiography. I SUSPECT it might be this one....

...as I seem to remember there being a picture of a woman on the front, but I'm not 100% sure if it's the same one but was the best I could find. Seems trying to remember an obscure book I read 20 years ago is not as easy as it sounds.

The writing style seems very familiar as does the comment about sports illustrated, but I see the publication date of that article was January 1987 and I was pretty sure she wrote about the crash that happened in Oct of 87.

that doesn't change the fact that nancy goldstone might be the author of the book you are looking for.
