Book Talk at the Morbid Anatomy Museum in Brooklyn
Cristin will be delivering a talk at the newly opened Morbid Anatomy Museum in Brooklyn about the story of Dr. Thomas Dent Mütter (1811-1859), the man behind Philadelphia’s iconic Mütter Museum. Brilliant, ambitious, and so flamboyantly outspoken that a student once described him as the “[P.T.] Barnum of the surgery room,” Mütter was a revolutionary figure whose compassion-based philosophies and passion for helping the severely deformed clashed with the constraints of his time.
