Women in Medicine Legacy Foundation: Oral Histories

Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine Oral Histories Exhibit. Video includes sound.

The Archives for Women in Medicine, Center for the History of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and the Women in Medicine Legacy Foundation or WIMLF (formerly the Foundation for the History of Women in Medicine) partnered in 2007 to promote research and recognition of the women who made an impact on the world of medicine. To that end, AWM proudly presents two oral history projects conducted by WIMLF: the Renaissance Women in Medicine Oral History Project and Voices of the Foundation. Containing over 30 hours of audio, complete transcripts, and additional materials including photographs, ephemera, and portraits by WIMLF President Wilma Bulkin Siegel, this exhibit shares the stories of incredible women honored for their contributions to medicine and to the lives of those around them.
