[1] In 1977, Eldridge resigned from a position as an executive producer at Channel 13, where she worked on such television series as Woman Alive!, to enter politics and run for president of the borough of Manhattan, asking, "Does anyone honestly believe that the whole household of Manhattan can be run by men alone?.
Since then she has worked on various political projects as well as several business ventures and activism campaigns focusing on women's rights.
The celebrated marriage between the feminist politician and the gruff city columnist inspired the CBS show, "American Nuclear."
[citation needed] They remained married until Breslin's death in 2017 left Eldridge widowed for a second time.
