Since the beginning, Karen Silkwood marched to the beat of her own drum. She chose chemistry over home economics. Love over university. The list goes on. Far from her humble beginnings, Karen ends up in Oklahoma City, where she answers a want ad for something that fascinates her: nuclear energy. The company was as enamored by Karen as she was about the work, but work isn't the only thing she finds at Kerr-McGee.

This episode was written by Cathy O’Neal and Vincent Stange. Silkwood is produced, researched, and narrated by Erica Lee with editing by Vincent Strange. Additional research by Aimee Worley. Artwork by Erica Lee, theme music by Brightside Studio.
