Early ER's Lewis & Hathaway


Listen Later

Host Cynthia Bemis Abrams revisits the hit medical drama series ER (1994-2009) to determine how well it's held up after its original run. Cynthia was a big fan of the writing and all-star cast and initially had a positive impression of the representation of women in medical profession. Cynthia examines the characters of nurse Carol Hathaway (played by Julianna Margulies) and Susan Lewis, M.D. (portrayed by Sherry Stringfield) from the series' early years, finding missed opportunities for a more progressive approach to representation and storytelling.
