Exhibit, Reception, "A Lady Alone"

Exhibit
As you may have heard, AHSL will be hosting another National Library of Medicine traveling exhibit. This one is called “Changing the Face of Medicine; Celebrating America’s Women Physicians.” The exhibit will arrive sometime early in the week of February 9th. Jose could use a couple of volunteers to help the committee set it up. The exhibit will remain on display until March 27.

Reception
The grand opening reception for the exhibit will be on Wednesday, Feb. 18th at 6 PM in 2101. Like the Frankenstein reception this one will consist of “heavy hors d’oeuvres”. At the reception we will honor some of the “Local Legends”, female physicians who have made a notable contribution to healthcare in Arizona. The reception will also precede a performance of “A Lady Alone”.

“A Lady Alone”
On Wednesday, Feb. 18th, the library will host a performance of “A Lady Alone. Elizabeth Blackwell: First American Woman Doctor” by N. Lynn Eckhert, M.D. This one-woman show, starring actress Linda Gray Kelley will be presented at Noon and 7 PM. We expect both performances to be in DuVal Auditorium. The noon performance will be primarily for AHSC students and the evening performance will be open to the public. We will need some volunteers to walk people from the reception to the play. Whether you volunteer or not, please try to join us for the reception and the play!
