Breast Cancer Survivor, Filmmaker, Inspirational Speaker

Lori Benson brings her own personal, humorous and straight-forward insight to the experience of breast cancer. She travels the country sharing her story and using her film to initiate a dialogue on critical issues, such as the emotional aspects of breast cancer and the role of family history.

At medical conferences, hospitals and cancer centers, Lori presents her film and illuminates her experiences from the patient perspective. In medical schools classrooms, her story serves as an educational tool for medical students and residents.

“Lori Benson's personal and unedited discussion of her experience with breast cancer resonated with our community and ranks up there as one of the most touching speakers we have ever hosted. Lori's connection to our patients, physicians and their supporters was immediate and real and she continues, even afterwards, to keep that connection going. She is honest, open and intelligent and left behind a hopeful message that filled us all— survivors, patients and otherwise— with a little more courage. ”
~ Jennifer Tookoian, California Cancer Center

“Lori Benson tells her story with vision and humanity, highly engaging for patients and providers alike.”
~ Brian Rank, MD, FACP, Medical Oncologist

“Today's lecture was amazing. Many of my colleagues have agreed that it was the most impactful hour and a half of medical school to date. We were able to see, to hear and to feel what it is like to be a patient with breast cancer from day one...Today's film and lecture will stay with me throughout medical school and my time as a doctor. I cannot speak highly enough about the need for every medical student in the country to see this video and hopefully have the luxury of speaking with Lori after the screening.”
~ Downstate Medical Student, New York
