Laurie Strongin



Laurie Strongin is the author of Saving Henry, a memoir of her life with her son Henry, who was born with an extremely rare genetic disease, Fanconi anemia. The book chronicles her pioneering use of cutting edge science to have another child who would be born healthy and provide the cord blood needed to save Henrys life. Following Henrys death in 2002, Laurie founded the Hope for Henry Foundation, which brings smiles and laughter to seriously ill children. Laurie also is a family advocate in the ongoing national discussion about ethics and genetics.

Laurie and her family live in Washington, DC.
