Description: (British Nurse, Midwife, and Memoirist)
Jennifer Worth, a British memoirist, gained fame for her bestselling trilogy that chronicled her time as a nurse and midwife in the impoverished East End of London during the 1950s. The trilogy included the books "Call the Midwife," "Shadows of the Workhouse," and "Farewell to The East End," all of which received considerable praise. After her nursing career, Worth transitioned to a new profession as a musician. Her literary works inspired the successful television series "Call the Midwife," which aired in both the UK and the US.
