Nine Lives and Counting: A Memoir of Hope, Caring, and Healing

By: Constance A. Bean, MPH | Editor: Brett Peruzzi

After nearly a century of living, in Nine Lives and Counting Constance A. Bean reflects on her long and accomplished life. From her early exploits as a teenage pilot, to her decades as a passionate activist and author in the field of natural childbirth after the birth of her own two children, to overcoming several serious illnesses, Bean brings deep insight about many of the societal changes that reshaped American life in the 20th century. Whether it’s about her struggle to understand her own family’s complicated history, or her long quest for mothers (and fathers) to have more control over the births of their children, Nine Lives and Counting is a story of triumph, healing, and hope.
