The first comprehensive biography of the "e;Father of the Blood Bank"e; and a champion of civil rights and equal health careGenius Unbroken is the first comprehensive biography to bring the extraordinary life of Dr. Charles Drew, the "e;Father of the Blood Bank,"e; into focus. Born into Washington D.C.'s vibrant African American community at the turn of the twentieth century, Drew rose on the strength of extraordinary physical and intellectual talents to become a groundbreaking medical research scientist. He pioneered methods of blood and plasma storage, leading America's first large-scale blood bank: innovations that continue to save lives around the world. A gifted surgeon and educator, Drew also became an eloquent and powerful advocate of civil rights, especially equal health care, for African Americans. Tragically, while still a young man, he lost his life while travelling to a medical conference that provided free care to indigent patients.Researched and developed through an intimate collaboration with Drew's daughter, Dr. Charlene Drew Jarvis, Miller encapsulates the life of Dr. Drew in a profound exploration of one man's challenge to institutional barriers in creating lasting change. Readers will find in Genius Unbroken the story of Dr. Drew's seminal and life-saving work while his life offers an enduring lesson in resilience, intellectual triumph, and the transformative power of unwavering determination.
