Hollie Davis Frick is an in-house immigration attorney for a health-care network and specializes in helping physicians and other health-care workers obtain employment authorization in the United States. Before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hollie saw first-hand how foreign-born physicians, nurses, pharmacists, lab techs, and other health care personnel risked their lives to help people, regardless of where they were born, while still miraculously managing their own fears of losing family members in their home countries. Like Kate, the main character in this book, Hollie believes these physicians are courageous, awesome human beings, and their story needs to be told. Hollie has always disliked calling immigrants "aliens" and she's happy to do her part to abolish this ridiculous practice. No one should have an "alien number," period.
Hollie is also the mother of two amazing daughters who, like Kate, were also not excited about trips to the doctor's office.
