Success to Significance with Dr. Roger Newman, voted one of the top OB-GYN doctors, debuts his novel Boys
Boys was inspired by Dr. Roger Newman's family history during the Great Depression and Jim Crow era. It's a fascinating story with central themes of brotherhood, racial hostility, friendship, kindness and the effect of war on the minds of young soldiers. Roger Newman, M.D. has been voted by his peers as one of the "Best Doctors in America." A nationally known OB-GYN specializing in the care of women with multiple gestations, he has authored two hundred scientific papers. The narrative introduces Pete and Alex as brothers, raised together on a dairy farm in the Great Smokey Mountains during the Great Depression. Their hometown is beset by the ignorance and racial intolerance of the post- Reconstruction South. For the two boys, those challenges are magnified because Pete is white and Alex is black. Hear the inside story on Boys and the sheer enjoyment that Dr. Newman garners from writing.
