This week we have a special guest who's taken her experience from the small screen to the big stage of real-world activism.  Melissa Fitzgerald is best known for her role as Carol Fitzpatrick, C.J.'s assistant on the hit series The West Wing.

Melissa's journey didn't end when the cameras stopped rolling. She has a new book, "What's Next: A Backstage Pass to The West Wing, Its Cast and Crew, and Its Enduring Legacy of Service."

From Hollywood to the halls of justice, Melissa now champions reform in Washington D.C., where she serves as director of strategic engagement for the nonprofit All Rise.

From her days on The West Wing to her current role championing justice system reform, Melissa's journey is truly inspiring.

 Melissa's new book, "What's Next: A Backstage Pass to The West Wing, Its Cast and Crew, and Its Enduring Legacy of Service" is available now at bookstores everywhere.

For those interested in learning more about Melissa's work with All Rise, you can find information on AllRise.org.

Her Story is hosted by Kathy Romano and airs Sunday mornings at 7 AM on 93.3 WMMR-FM Philadelphia.
