Description
"Born in 1940s Harlem, Patricia Bath dreamed of being a doctor--even though that wasn't a career option for most women.

"Choosing miracles" when everyone else had given up hope, she invented a specialized laser for removing cataracts, becoming the first African American woman doctor to receive a medical patent"--,Provided by publisher.
