Gabriel García Marquez once said that the writer's problem was not the reach of the imagination, it was making our lives believable. So true. Let's just say it's been a great ride so far, for a southern cross: Florida born, Paris based, historian, lecturer, writer, reader. ...more

Many doctors organized Resistance networks, writing false medical certificates keep prisoners out of camps and young men from being sent to work in German factories. Others fled to join the Free French in London: Dr. André Lichtwitz scrawled "Gone to fight!" across his office door before sneaking across the Spanish border. Some American doctors stayed to do what they could, such as Sumner Jackson, at The American Hospital of Paris. But there were also doctors who were pleased to see the anti-Jewish policies that forced some 700 doctors out of their practices in Paris alone.

To be published in March 2023 by Louisiana State University Press. (less)
