The fertility industry is lying to women.
Jennifer Lahl is the founder and president of The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network. Lahl couples her 25 years of experience as a pediatric critical care nurse, a hospital administrator, and senior-level nursing management with a deep passion to speak for those who have no voice.
Lahl’s writings have appeared in various publications including First Things Magazine the American Journal of Bioethics. In 2009, Lahl was associate producer of the documentary film, Lines That Divide: The Great Stem Cell Debate, which was an official selection in the 2010 California Independent Film Festival.

Her forthcoming documentary film, addressing Surrogacy, was released in January 2014.
