Olivia Campbell, WOMEN IN WHITE COATS: How the First Women Doctors Changed the World of Medicine

"The problem with most biographies is that the subjects are made out to be god-like. I really wanted to make these three-dimensional characters." Journalist and author Olivia Campbell joins Zibby to discuss her new book, Women in White Coats. Olivia shares the traumatic experiences that inspired her to research the women who changed the world of medicine, and how those same experiences led the earliest female doctors to pursue their careers.
