- A Documentary with No Easy Answers [After Tiller]
Casey N. Cep, New Yorker, October 15, 2013 The conflict between Dr. Tiller’s faith and the religious motivations of his murderer also struck the filmmaker Lana Wilson. “I thought it was so surprising that the No. 1 target of the anti-abortion movement was a deeply religious Christian,” she told me. Wilson, who was frustrated with media coverage that refused to do more than label Dr. Tiller a “polarizing, political figure,” remembers “wanting to put a human face on the issues.” By early 2010, she and Martha Shane, her co-director, were working on a documentary—only instead of focussing on Dr. Tiller, they decided to profile the four remaining doctors who perform late-term abortions. “After Tiller,” their film, premièred earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival and is now screening in theatres around the country.

- An abortion doctor speaks out about decades of threats and violence
Warren M. Hern, STAT, December 4, 2015 The first death threats came at 3 a.m. It was November 1973 and I had just started performing abortions at a small nonprofit clinic in Colorado. Now the phone was ringing at my home in the dead of night. I had built my small house deep in the mountains, in a place of solitude and beauty, where I could see the stars at night. How did they find me here? I was terrified. I started sleeping with a rifle by my bed. I expected to be shot as I walked out the door in the morning or as I came home at night.

- Heroes or Killers? Can We Try to Discuss?
A.O. Scott, New York Times, Sept. 19, 2013 ‘After Tiller’ Is a Documentary About Abortion Doctors “After Tiller,” a new documentary by Martha Shane and Lana Wilson, is a partisan document in the culture wars. It could hardly be otherwise, since the film’s subject, abortion, is one where common ground is elusive, if not philosophically untenable. The four doctors interviewed and observed on screen, who the film says are the only ones in the United States openly performing third-trimester abortions, are heroic figures in the filmmakers’ eyes, but are condemned as murderers by those on the other side. It would be nice to believe that a movie like this could provoke civil and respectful dialogue about an intensely polarizing issue, but let’s not kid ourselves.... “After Tiller” is impressive because it honestly presents the views of supporters of legal abortion, and is thus a valuable contribution to a public argument that is unlikely to end anytime soon.

- Opinion: Helping women who are having the worst moment of their lives should not be controversial
Dr. Warren M. Hern, The Colorado Sun, Jul 5, 2021
Why should women’s lives and health be at the mercy of the next election?
Every day, we wake up in the morning and read about ourselves in the paper, or at least, about what we are doing – abortions for women who need them.

- Warren M. Hern: Anticipated abolition of Roe v. Wade after 49 years takes away freedom and health for many American women
Warren M. Hern, Daily Camera guest opinion, Boulder Daily Camera, January 22, 2022
One of the great legal landmarks in American history, and one of the most important landmarks in the history of women, is one year short of its 50th anniversary. The Supreme Court handed down its Roe v. Wade decision on Jan. 22, 1973, and it is very doubtful that it will reach that 50th anniversary.

Presented at the 1978 meeting of the Association of Planned Parenthood Physicians, San Diego, California, October 26.

However, significant emotional reactions of medical and counseling staff tend to accompany this procedure.
