Anna Martin: When Sara Glass walked into the studio,
I had to say something about her outfit.
Anna Martin: I'm noticing you're wearing some very fabulous black leather pants.
Sara Glass: These are my power pants.
This is like when I have something important to do that day.
It's like, these are the black leather pants.
Anna Martin: Would you have worn something like this —
I don't know — 15 years ago?
Sara Glass: Oh, no, even five years ago,
or maybe five years ago, I would have worn these in the city,
but not back on Long Island.
Anna Martin: Sara grew up in an ultra Orthodox Jewish community.
For most of her life, she wore skirts and dresses, never pants —
and definitely not leather ones.
Because there are strict rules
about what Orthodox women can and can't wear.
And Sara followed all of them.
Sara Glass: I was wearing a wig over my hair.
So it was a long blonde wig.
And I wore skirts.
