SUMMARY:RUSH at the Kansas City Public Library
DESCRIPTION:His fame hasn’t endured like Washington’s\, Jefferson’s\, or Hancock’s. But Benjamin Rush—only 30 when he signed the Declaration of Independence—was almost equally extraordinary. He was the most famous physician of his time\, pioneering national healthcare and revolutionizing the treatment of mental illness. He was also a progressive thorn in the side of the American political establishment\, opposing slavery\, capital punishment\, and prejudice. \nIn a discussion of his new biography Rush: Revolution\, Madness\, and Benjamin Rush\, the Visionary Doctor Who Became a Founding Father\, award-winning journalist and historian Stephen Fried examines perhaps the most significant Founding Father you’ve never heard of. \nFried is an adjunct professor at Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania.

SUMMARY:RUSH at the Smithsonian Institute
DESCRIPTION:Drawing from his new biography\, author and journalist Stephen Fried resurrects the most significant founding father we’ve never heard of. He discusses why Rush became known as the “American Hippocrates” for transforming medical training and institutions\, as well as for revolutionizing the understanding and treatment of mental illness and addiction. He traces how this son of a Philadelphia blacksmith grew into an internationally renowned writer and reformer\, a fierce progressive agitator who championed public education and opposed prejudice by race\, religion\, or gender—all among the reasons why Fried feels the overlooked Rush deserves a place in the pantheon of great American leaders. \nFried’s book\, Rush: Revolution\, Madness\, and the Visionary Doctor Who Became a Founding Father (Crown) is available for purchase and signing.
