In this talk, Dr. Dawn Eden Goldstein, will speak on her award-winning biography of Father Edward Dowling, SJ (1898-1960), who rescued Alcoholics Anonymous co-founder Bill Wilson from debilitating depression and gave him the spiritual guidance he needed to bring AA to international prominence. Although Dowling was not an alcoholic himself, he came to devote his ministry to helping people in recovery, including those in troubled marriages and those suffering from nervous disorders. |
