In 2009 a long term abortion provider and advocate for reprodutive rights was murdered. Dr. George Tiller will be forever remembered for the important work he did to assure women's choice.

PRCH’s website has two never-before-seen videos of Dr. Tiller. In the videos, he explains why he became an abortion provider and why he remained in the field. The clips are outtakes from the interview Dr. Tiller gave in 2001 in Wichita for our documentary Voices of Choice. He was murdered on May 31, 2009, for performing abortions.
