Some of my playlist songs are louder than others. Is there a way to level the volume of all the songs in the playlist, i.e., select All, then have them essentially all the same volume level?

Level the Volume In an iTunes Playlist?

You can't do it for a playlist, since all a playlist is is a list of songs. It would be the song themselves that would have volume differences. For instance, if a playlist has songs A, B and C in it, and they are all too loud, then making a playlist with A, B, and D in it would also have A and B too loud since they are the same songs.
But you can do it on a per-song basis. Select the song, in the playlist or elsewhere, Command+i to get info, then go to Options. There is a slider for Volume Adjust.
Now you can select multiple songs, such as all of the songs in the playlist, and use Command+i, Options, Volume Adjust on all of them at once. But I'd do it on a per-song basis. When you change this for a song, it changes it for the song everywhere, not just in the playlist.
But here's something you should do first: Check in iTunes, Preferences, Playback. Do you have Sound Check turned on? This will attempt to play all songs at a similar level. That may solve your problem for you with one click.
