In this episode I speak with Bee Boeser who is an author, a public speaker, and still a force at the age of 87yo! When Bee realized historians left her husband's name and his work from the historical records of small pox eradication in Africa, she took it upon herself to gather all the information she needed to write a memoir of the time her family spent there and the challenges they faced. The book is called Vaccines & Bayonets: Fighting Small Pox in Africa Amid Tribalism, Terror, and the Cold War. Here are the links to find out more about Bee and to purchase her book.

Speaker, Author of
VACCINES & BAYONETS: Fighting Smallpox inAfrica amidTribalism, Terror and the Cold War

In listening to the podcast episode, it will become obvious to you that Bee was always meant to through life with Carl and provide him support as the woman behind the man. However, what also becomes quite evident is that Bee is not totally defined by that role because she has also achieved her own accomplishments and has never let her age define her or hold her back. Listen to this episode and get to know Bee and you will love her as much as I do. She is an inspiration!
