In 1972, Detective Lucille Burrascano was among the first fifteen women police officers to patrol the streets of New York City. She and host Dean Olsher go back to her beat, the 77th Precinct in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, to talk about what it was like to be a uniformed pioneer back then. Produced by Jill Krauss.
