For the Williams sisters, transplanted Northerners living in the segregated South of the 1950's, childhood was cut short when their father, a researcher at Oak Ridge and a beloved biology professor and mentor of the young E.O. Wilson, experienced a psychotic break and had to be institutionalized. He died three months later. Author Rebecca Williams Mlynarczyk and her sister, Carol Williams, share excerpts from this powerful new memoir and reflect on how researching and writing this book led to transformation and healing for both of them.Rebecca Mlynarczyk, Emerita of English, City University of New York | Carol Williams, Associate Dean Emerita, ECSU
