The Minds Behind Mindhunter: A Conversation with Professor Ann Burgess and John Douglas
From the Nominator
An integrated marketing campaign invited on- and off-campus guests to attend a talk with Boston College Professor of Nursing Ann Burgess, a pioneer in assessing and treating trauma victims, and former FBI special investigator John Douglas. In the late 1970s, the two helped develop a new type of criminal profiling to better understand notorious serial killers. Their experiences were captured in Mindhunter, a 1995 book that became the basis for the fictionalized Netflix hit series. The event was moderated by a former prosecutor.
