In this episode, I talk with JoAnn Mertens and her decades-long career with the Missouri Department of Corrections. JoAnn started her career in 1966 as a clerk and Correctional Matron and retired in 2000 as an Assistant Superintendent. She was the first female Correctional Officer for the MDOC, and made it through despite, being unwelcomed as a woman working in prison, sexual harassment from supervisors, to the regular challenges of working in a prison. She details stories from her book, as well as advice for those just starting in Corrections.
