Sue Black: Looking death in the face
Stephen Sackur talks to the world-renowned forensic anthropologist and investigator Sue Black. What does she see when she looks death in the face?
HARDtalk goes to the Hay Literary Festival in Wales, where we are joined by an audience to meet a world-renowned specialist in death. For many of us, it is the hardest subject of all to think and talk about - yet for author Sue Black, it is the very business of life. She's a professor of forensic anthropology, whose ability to read the clues and stories in human remains has made her a world renowned investigator. What does she see when she looks death in the face?
