As a little girl, Bonnie Jean Blacklock played with pill bugs and lizards instead of dolls. She fought the system to became a doctor in 1963, along with two other women (among 127 men) — breaking ground for female physicians; this, while raising a family. The three new "girl" doctors paved the way for thousands of women who followed in their footsteps and still fight for sexual equality in the workplace. It's a story of exhilaration, hope, tragedy, and resolution that will make you laugh, and cry, and everything in between.
