Audrey Clare Farley has published two non-fiction books, both focused on the history of reproductive control in America. The Unfit Heiress (2021) follows the case of Ann Cooper Hewitt, an heiress who was sterilized against her will in the 1930s and later sued her own mother. The book reveals how eugenics laws enabled such practices and how Hewitt’s wealth made her case unusually public.

Girls and Their Monsters (2023) broadens the scope to examine other cases of women subjected to medical procedures without their consent. Farley’s research draws on court records, medical archives, and personal papers to reconstruct stories that challenge readers to confront the history of reproductive medicine in America.
