Nicolas Kristof on Oprah

Published by Webmaster at 11:19 pm under Hospital News

Pullitzer Prize winner and NY Times columnist Nicolas Kristof has taped a full hour program with Oprah where he discusses his new book, Half the Sky, which prominently features Edna Adan. We don’t yet know the exact date that the show will be broadcast but is expected to be shown in early October. Watch for it!

The book, and the TV show, profile heroic women in the developing world and also discuss the important – essential – role of women in a country’s development. Nicolas said the program was so moving that one of Oprah’s security guards was brought to tears.
