Karen Gedney
30 Years Behind Bars Yes But The Jailbreak Will Surprise You!
A female prison doctor shares where compassion is surprisingly found.
Karen Gedney Corps Scholarship winner, she was placed in a male medium security prison after her training, to do a four-year payback in 1987. Against all the odds, she turned it into a calling that lasted almost three decades.
She was given The Nevada Hero’s for Humanity Award in 2000 for her work as a pioneer in HIV care in correctional settings. Karen was also recognized by the American Correctional Association as one of the ‘Best in the Business’.
On leaving the prison in 2016, Karen dedicated her life as a catalyst to shift the current prison paradigm to one of prevention, healing and re-integration. Her first book is her memoir, 30 Years Behind Bars, Trials of a Prison Doctor and is available on her website and on Amazon.
