An American daughter
|
Dr. Lyssa Dent Hughes is nominated to be the next Surgeon General of the United States, and it appears to be a certainty. However, one small misstep in an interview casts her whole nomination in doubt, as Lyssa helplessly watches the media shatter her privacy, her career, and her world. In this DC political drama, the ever incisive Wendy Wasserstein attempts to explore how, when it comes to a career in the public eye, “a woman’s life is all about boundaries."
