The Lobotomist [1] premieres on TPT 2 [2] at 8 p.m. Monday, January 21, and will be shown several times thereafter on TPT 17 and TPT’s digital channels, as well as on PBS stations across the country. Based in part on local author Jack El-Hai [3]’s 2005 book The Lobotomist: A Maverick Medical Genius and His Tragic Quest to Rid the World of Mental Illness [4]. It’s worth a watch.
