Publisher Summary

Something To Prove picks up where her national bestselling memoir, The Ditchdigger's Daughters left off in which Dr. Thornton tells the story of her amazing father, Donald Thornton, who cherished a mighty dream - that all of his daughters would become medical doctors; respected professionals in white coats and scripperscraps (stethoscopes) that would shield them from the pernicious specter of prejudice. In this sequel, Dr. Thornton chronicles her life as a wife, mother and a full-time practicing obstetrician in an academic medical center becoming the first African-American woman in the country to be double-Board Certified in obstetrics, gynecology and maternal-fetal medicine.
