Lucky Girl

By Denise Gelberg

Irene Adelson's beginnings in post-WWII New York City are nothing if not modest, but her extraordinary gifts begin to make themselves known around the time she begins school. In her youth, when she comes face to face with devastating trauma, she turns to science as a means of coping with the events that cause her so much pain, certain that science will provide the path to unlocking life's mysteries. A college grad at age nineteen, with an MD/PhD in hand by twenty-six, the brave, determined, and whip smart Irene Adelson becomes a physician-scientist who makes a paradigm-changing discovery. The secret sauce in her life is love; a love that soaks deep into her very being, giving her the courage to confront the foes that threaten to derail her life and career, and turning bad luck into something altogether different.
