      Lives on Fire

      2012 1 Season Documentary List
      Reviews Being a firefighter is a dangerous job that is largely performed by men, but there are also many (sometimes forgotten) women battling fires with fire departments across America. This series follows four women who regularly risk their lives battling some of California's most dangerous disasters. In addition to fighting fires, the women face the challenges of working in a male-dominated world and balancing their dangerous jobs with their personal lives. The featured firefighting females are a mother with 15 years experience as a fire-apparatus engineer, a seasonal firefighter working to become permanent in her fifth year, an engineer recently transferred to a new station in an area known for dangerous cliff and water rescues, and a firefighter-paramedic who delivers on-scene emergency medical care to patients at all kinds of incidents.
