“The image of a brave and empowered ‘Fire Woman’ is what informed the rest of my lyrics,”
​​ 
The title of the song came when he met British author Josephine Reynolds, who told him she was going to release a memoir about her life as firefighter in the early 1980's, entitled “Fire Woman.” So, Segall offered to write its   theme song. “I had already begun writing a song about the trans-   formative power of fire to purge and renew,” he said. After he met Reynolds and heard some of her stories as a firefighter,Segall knew what the title of   the song had to be. “ 

David's message -
"I want to say a huge thank you to journalist Marilyn McMahon for publishing this piece on "Fire Woman" in the Sunday paper! And thanks a million times over to Boz Nobel for the amazing photography! To download the song and help support Habitat for Humanity of SB go to https://davidsegall.bandcamp.com/track/fire-woman #spreadthelove #sharethemusic #habitatforhumanity #805strong"

​ ​"Diving head first into a career in the last bastion of masculinity, firefighting. The world back in a Thatcher led England in 1983 was much smaller and for a woman entering the fire service much tougher."
