In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, BC Bookmarks spotlights alumna Ann Murray Paige, a broadcast journalist and author of Words to Live By and pink tips, a book of advice for anyone diagnosed with breast cancer from someone who has been there. An inspirational figure, Paige regularly blogs about her experience as a cancer patient. Her other projects include a one-woman show, “In the Pink,” and a documentary, “The Breast Cancer Diaries,” which has been seen in 30 countries and been translated into two languages. Earlier this year Paige was honored by the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Care Center at its one hundred event which recognizes 100 individuals and groups whose diligence and discoveries, philanthropy and passion have helped advance the fight against cancer. Listen to her amazing speech.
