EXTRAORDINARY: HOW ONE KID FROM NEWARK ROSE FROM POVERTY TO PROMINENCE
New York Times Bestselling Author, Dr. Sampson Davis – an African American who grew up in a tough neighborhood in Newark, aka Brick City, is best known as one of three friends who made a pact in high school to become doctors. Their book The Pact has inspired countless young men and women to strive for goals they otherwise would not have dreamed they could attain.
Now, in an interview with FOX News Radio’s Crystal Berger, Dr. Davis discusses his latest release entitled Living and Dying in Brick City. He uncovers the perils he faced that landed him in the juvenile criminal justice system of New Jersey and the impact that his sister’s drug addiction had on his life. With compassion in his heart and medical training as his weapon, Dr. Davis presents an extraordinary picture of how anyone can beat the odds; no matter the hand they’ve been dealt. Dr. Sampson Davis now serves as an emergency room physician in the very same neighborhood that he was raised.
