Biographies of nursing pioneers needed


Lydia Hall
Virginia Henderson
Florence Nightingale
Mary Osborne
Sara Parsons
Hildegard Peplau
Isabel Hampton Robb
Margaret Sanger
Mabel Staupers
Lillian Wald
Susie Walking Bear Yellowtail

Please let us know if you have ideas for other pioneers to profile.

We are looking for these biographies to be 500-600 words long with their aim being to educate the press how the work of nurses autonomously saves and improves lives. We are looking to avoid description of any angelic or virtuous qualities the pioneers may have had.

Completed biographies of nursing pioneers

Mary Breckinridge

Dorothea Dix

Florence Wald

Clara Barton


The biographies of nursing pioneers will be linked from our press room page--where members of the media go to learn about nursing.

Please contact us if you can write a biography of a nursing pioneer. If you have another nursing pioneer not on this list on whom you would like to write a biography, please contact us. Your help is most appreciated. Thank you!
