1996-12-06

Jeff Salkin and Sloane Brown host this weekly program on "people, places, and issues" from around Maryland. Pieter Bickford reports on Frederick Memorial Hospital’s condensed two-day educational program for expectant parents at the Morningside Inn Bed and Breakfast, near Frederick. Nancy Becker, manager of the family focus program at the hospital's Wellness Center, fills the weekend with practical information for the couples who attend. Sloane Brown interviews Dr. Marvin M. Schuster, gastroenterologist, who founded the Motility and Digestive Disorders Clinic — at the time, the only one of it’s kind in the country – at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center. Mark Steiner moderates a short debate between Sen. Martin Madden and Susan Goering, Executive Director of the ACLU of Maryland, on proposed legislation that would require welfare recipients to take a drug test. Annette Gibbs profiles Emily Hammond Wilson, 92, one of Maryland's first women doctors, who practiced for 52 years in southern Anne Arundel county. This episode closes with excerpts from “Chanukah: A Celebration of Freedom,” an upcoming program on MPT: Robyn Helzner, a leading interpreter of world Jewish music, sings songs about Chanukah in English, Hebrew, Yiddish, and Ladino. Parents and children describe what Chanukah means to them.
