Woodruff to do show on his recovery

ABC News anchor Bob Woodruff, who suffered serious injuries while reporting in Iraq in January, is going back to work.

The network said Thursday that Woodruff’s first project would be a one-hour prime-time program dealing with his own recovery and the work of the medical personnel who assisted him and the many soldiers who’ve been injured in the war.

The program is expected to air in the spring, ABC said.

Meanwhile, Woodruff is also working on a book with his wife, Lee, about their experiences during his long recovery from the brain injury he suffered when hit by shrapnel during a roadside explosion. It will be published by Random House.
