Dr. Judy Melinek is the author of “Working Stiff: Two Years, 262 Bodies, And The Making Of A Medical Examiner.” The book about forensic pathology explores homicides, suicides and the many other ways the human life can end. Melinek says that approximately 10% of what forensic pathologists work on are homicides or suspicious deaths. The remaining are accidents, suicides, and unexpected natural deaths. She also discusses her time studying at the NYC Medical Examiner’s Office during 9-11.
About her career path, Melinek says “helping people understand death, helps them appreciate life so much better.”
