Review for Catching Cancer, ABC TV, 2009
“Riveting... thought provoking... has all the touchstones of a good medical thriller... There's something redemptive in Pemberton's work. She straddles the categories of art and journalism, entertainment and knowledge. She is a filmmaker who, in respected director Ken Burns's terms, is really a "tribal storyteller.”
