About This Lecture<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the footlights of the Apollo Theatre where she performed with her family band known as \u201cThe Thornton Sisters\u201d to the operating theater of an Ivy League medical school, Dr. Yvonne Thornton relied on her father\u2019s life lessons, which taught her to be strong and rise above adversity. She has managed more than 12,000 deliveries and has personally delivered more than 5,000 babies in her career. As a Monmouth University alumna and former University Trustee, Dr. Thornton will serve as a kindling force that will ignite a fire within the audience to go forward and achieve their dreams. We will discuss her journey of how she rose from poverty to prosperity and made that quantum leap up the social mobility ladder in one generation.<\/p>\n
