Jenny Brown is  an amazing woman who summoned the courage to battle cancer and the loss of her leg at the age of 10. You’ll hear how  that same courage sustained her later in life as she went undercover to film and document farmed animal abuse. Jenny worked professionally as a producer, director, and post-production supervisor but gave up her career to dedicate her life to helping the animals that society seems to have forgotten.

Jenny founded Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary in Woodstock, New York, along with her husband Doug. Her new book, The Lucky Ones: My Passionate Fight for Farm Animals, tells her story.
