As a Ziegfeld Follies girl and film actress, Justine Johnstone
(1895-1982) was celebrated as ""the most beautiful woman in the
world."" Her career took an unexpected turn when she abruptly
retired from acting at 31. For the remainder of her life, she was a
cutting-edge pathologist. Her research at Columbia University
contributed to the pre-penicillin treatment of syphilis and she
participated in the development of early cancer treatments at
Caltech. The first full-length biography of Johnstone chronicles
her extraordinary success in two male-dominated fields-show
business and medical science.
