Happy Friday, dear readers!

This week’s “Weekend Reading” suggestion is both a book and an interview.

Last summer, I read The White House Doctor: My Patients Were Presidents: A Memoir by Dr. Connie Mariano. Not only is Dr. Mariano an interesting character all by herself (she was the first Filipino-American to become a Rear Admiral in the United States Navy and the first American woman to be appointed the Director of the White House Medical Unit), but she gives a glimpse into the lives of some other fairly interesting characters.

Think Presidents Bush, Clinton, and Bush.

A year later (last month, to be exact – hey, doctors are busy people), I was able to interview Dr. Mariano about the psychology behind working to keep alive and healthy three Presidents of the United States.

Check it out for yourself over at Presidents As Patients: An Interview With Dr. Connie Mariano.
