About the Author
Ernest Drucker is an epidemiologist, public health scholar, and author whose work examines the human consequences of criminal justice policy. Drawing on decades of research, teaching, and community-based advocacy, he has illuminated mass incarceration as a public health crisis with far-reaching effects on individuals, families, and communities. His writing connects rigorous evidence with moral clarity, making complex social issues accessible to broad audiences. Drucker is best known for A Plague of Prisons: The Epidemiology of Mass Incarceration in America, a landmark analysis that reframes imprisonment through the lens of epidemiology and calls for more humane, effective approaches to public safety.
