In the inaugural Phyllis Marchand Lecture, educator, activist and writer Susie Wilson will discuss her autobiography, “Still Running: A Memoir,” Tuesday, May 26, at 7 p.m. The event will be held at the Princeton Public Library located in the Sands Library Building, 65 Witherspoon Street, Princeton.
Considered a state and national leader in the fight to prevent adolescent pregnancy, Wilson planned and managed the operations of a resource, advocacy and technical assistance organization committed to implementing sexuality education programs in public schools and community agencies, first in New Jersey and later across the nation.
A resident of Princeton, Wilson completed a six-year term on the board of trustees of the Princeton Area Community Foundation and its Fund for Women and Girls. Presently, she serves on the board of the Fistula Foundation, a nonprofit that funds surgeries to repair obstetric fistulas, a devastating childbirth injury that affects many of the poorest women in Africa and Asia.
