Who is Beauty and the Beast from Becoming a Doctor: A Journey of Initiation in Medical School and what is their importance?

"Beauty and the Beast" is the nickname Konner gave to the two faculty members, Betsy Sinclair and Barry Goldfarb, who ran the diagnostic radiology unit. Betsy was a thirty-year-old brilliant Southern woman with sensuous lips and a musical soothing voice Konner called "Beauty." Her associate Barry was from Brooklyn like Konner but, unlike him, was foul-mouthed, vulgar and nicknamed the "Beast." Betsy and Barry were equally expert in cerebral angiography or brain imaging.
