One of the nation’s most tireless health advocates, BARBARA SEAMAN (1935-2008) co-founded the National Women’s Health Network and pioneered a new style of health reporting that focused on patients’ rights. Her groundbreaking investigative book, The Doctor’s Case Against the Pill (1969), prompted Senate hearings in the 1970s that led to a warning label on oral contraceptives and the drastic lowering of estrogen doses due to dangerous health effects. Dedicated to reaching a wide audience, Seaman wrote columns for Brides Magazine, Ladies’ Home Journal, and Ms., inspiring women around the world to take control of their own health. Seaman was a founding advisory board member of and key advisor to Seven Stories Press.
Barbara Seaman is the first prophet of the women's health movement and her prophecies are still coming true. -Gloria Steinem Lively and impassioned ... [Seaman] certainly makes her point. -Gina Kolata, New York Times A wake-up call to women about unquestioningly accepting doctors orders. -Booklist The unmasking of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) is a major triumph for the women's health movement, which has claimed for decades that its supposed benefits are drug-industry hype. You can read all about it in Barbara Seaman's devastating expose, The Greatest Experiment Ever Performed on Women. -Katha Pollitt, The Nation
