Best known for her passionate advocacy of a different perspective on disability, Adrienne also helped challenge conventional wisdom on reproductive rights, medical exceptions of conscience, feminist scholarship, and other fields. Trained as a therapist, a social psychologist, and a social worker, she also did academic work in philosophy and psychoanalytic psychology.
