Barbara Pullen-Smith interview, 12/13/2019, part 3/3

Dr. Barbara Pullen-Smith recounts her life story in a conversation with Victor Schoenbach on December 13, 2019. During her years leading the NC Office of Minority Health as its founding Director, her office worked to promote diversity and inclusion in other state health department offices. The office supported, participated in, and helped community health workers to attend the Annual Minority Health Conference at UNC. Since leaving the Office of Minority Health and Health Disparities (as it later became), Barbara has worked as a consultant to community organizations, traveled abroad with her husband Keith, and became an adjunct professor at St. Augustine's University, where she coordinates the internship program for undergraduate public health majors. In 2015, she developed breast cancer and experienced the health care system from the patient perspective. She then wrote The New Woman in the Mirror, based on her experience from diagnosis to healing (www.barbarapullensmith.com). Writing out her experiences has helped her to heal.
The interview was recorded by Victor Schoenbach and Barbara's husband Keith at their residence in Garner, NC. Part 3 of 3.
