Legacy
The foundation that bears Elizabeth Glaser's name is a major force in funding the study of pediatric HIV issues and tackling juvenile AIDS, both domestically and globally. Her book In the Absence of Angels (1991) is noted for its sensitive communication of the pain of the loss of a child and the intrusion of the media on a mother's grief.
Her son, Jake, is now a healthy adult who often speaks publicly on behalf of AIDS patients.
