Yale Law Librarian questions origin of the "Serenity Prayer"

The NY Times reports today on a story about a law librarian at Yale University who has uncovered new evidence that the Serenity Prayer, which has long thought to have been written by noted theologian, Reinhold Niebuhr, may have actually been written by a woman. The prayer is well known particularly because of its adoption by Alcoholics Anonymous in the late 1940s.
