Deborah Drew, CNM, is a native of Rhode Island who practiced midwifery for 25 years. Her career culminated in a private midwifery practice in Westerly, Rhode Island, co-owned with her partner Sue Menihan. They closed the practice after five years so Deborah could fulfill a lifelong dream to serve in the Peace Corps. Deborah and her husband John are health volunteers in Honduras and will complete their service in April 2007.
