Description: This is the first poetry chapbook from Lambda Literary Award winning writer Jan Steckel, an activist and former Harvard- and Yale-trained pediatrician. She served as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Dominican Republic and cared for Spanish-speaking families in CA at a county hospital and at a large HMO until a physical disability forced her to retire from clinical practice. *The Underwater Hospital* won a Rainbow Award for Lesbian and Bisexual Poetry and is now in its fourth printing.
