Alderson

Alderson is the story of Doctor Mary B. Harris, a fierce and dedicated prison warden who, while coming to terms with her own husband's PTSD from his service in Word War I, attempts to revolutionize the American prison system in the 1920's and rehabilitate such female luminaries as Axis Sally, Tokyo Rose, Billie Holiday, Lolita Lebron, Squeaky Fromme, and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, one of the founders of the ACLU. Alderson is the true story of the most successful Women's federal reformatory in the USA and how the government and big business eventually destroyed it.
