She is the author of the 2020 book Documenting Death: Maternal Mortality and the Ethics of Care in Tanzania.

Dr. Adrienne Shares:
- The extent to which women in lower resource settings still struggle to get adequate care during pregnancy and birth
- How Adrienne’s experience in Tanzania has shaped her perspective on her own pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding journey, and approach to parenting a 9 month old
