Overview
Hawthorne is a television series that centers on the professional and personal life of Christina Hawthorne. As the Chief Nursing Officer at Richmond Trinity Hospital, she leads a team of dedicated nurses working on the front lines of the medical facility.

However, the intense focus she maintains on her work and her constant dedication to helping others eventually take a significant toll on her personal life.
