Her career took an unexpected turn when she abruptly retired from acting at thirty-one. For the remainder of her life, she dedicated herself to medical research and social activism. As a cutting-edge pathologist, she contributed to the prepenicillin treatment of syphilis at Columbia University, participated in the development of early cancer treatments at Caltech, and assisted Los Angeles physicians in oncology research. As a divorced woman in the 1940s, she adopted and raised two children on her own. She later helped find work for blacklisted Hollywood screenwriters and became a prominent participant in social and political causes. The first full-length biography of Johnstone chronicles her extraordinary success in two male-dominated fields-show business and medical science-and follows her remarkable journey into a fascinating and fulfilling life. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Johnstone, Justine,|d1895-1982. 650 0 Actors|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Women scientists|zUnited States|vBiography. 700 1 Gavin, Marguerite. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 13964129?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ bsa_9781799904816_180.jpeg
