Linda Andrews, a Bristol resident, is premiering her new memoir, Building a Better World Together: A Career in Women’s Health at the Lawrence Memorial Library, Sunday, April 23 from 2 to 4 p.m. at 40 North Street in Bristol.
A retired nurse practitioner in women’s health, Linda lived and traveled throughout Africa and Asia for nearly 30 years. In her memoir, she revisits her life as an expatriate working in international health, working closely with governments and their partners to help create and expand health programs. Linda will introduce attendees to the important and inspiring work she brought to each country, discuss lessons learned, and answer questions about the daily life of an American living abroad. Books will be for sale and all proceeds will be donated to the Jean Andrews Nursing Scholarship Fund, named after her mother which was started in 1970 by Porter Hospital Auxiliary and continues today. Funds are administered by VSAC.
