Martin Papers Dates 1860-1958, bulk 1887-1935 Extent 48 linear feet (96 boxes) Creators Martin, Franklin H. (Franklin Henry), 1857-1935 Martin, Isabelle H. (Isabelle Hollister), 1859-1945 Administrative/Biographical History Abstract: Franklin H. Martin (b. 1857, Ixonia, Wisconsin; d. 1935, Chicago, Illinois) founded the journal “Surgery, Gynecology and Obstetrics” (now the Journal of the American College of Surgeons) in 1905. In 1910, he organized the Clinical Congress of Surgeons of North America (now the annual Clinical Congress of the American College Surgeons) and in 1913 he founded the American College of Surgeons. During World War I, he served as a member of the Advisory Commission of the U.S. Council of National Defense. His wife Isabelle took an active part in his career. Their papers include correspondence, diaries, scrapbooks, casebooks, clippings, publications, and photographs. Biographical History: Franklin H. Martin was born in Ixonia, Wisconsin in 1857. He entered the Chicago Medical College (now Northwestern University Medical School) in Oct. 1877. After his graduation in Mar. of 1880, he served as an intern at Mercy Hospital until 1881. He was on the staff of the South Side Dispensary (1883-1888) and was Professor of Gynecology at the Policlinic of Chicago (1886-1888). Beginning in 1887, he was for many years a gynecologist at the Women’s Hospital of Chicago. Also in 1887, he organized the Charity Hospital of Chicago. In 1888, with Dr. W.F. Coleman, he organized the Post-Graduate Medical School of Chicago. The education of the practicing surgeon was the motivating factor of his career. To enable practicing surgeons to share their knowledge with others, he founded the journal “Surgery, Gynecology and Obstetrics” in 1905. To give surgeons a chance to personally observe demonstrations of surgical techniques in “wet clinics,” he, along with several others, organized the Clinical Congress of Surgeons of North America in 1910 (now the annual Clinical Congress of the American College Surgeons). Although many were involved in the founding of the American College of Surgeons, Martin is known as the visionary and principal founder. The College was established in 1913 to advance ethical practice, patient welfare, hospital standardization, and surgical education and research. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Martin a member of the Advisory Commission of the Council of National Defense. He served as a Colonel in the Medical Corps of the U.S. Army during World War I. He served with the American Expeditionary Forces in France for three months. In Apr. 1918, Martin presented to the Advisory Commission a project intended to serve as a clearing-house for medicine and allied subjects, to be financed from private sources and to be housed at a location offered by the French government in Paris. Named the “College des Etats Unis d’Amerique,” it was approved by the Council of National Defense, but was ultimately made unnecessary by the speeding up of the transportation of doctors to France, and the approaching end of the war. In 1933, Martin published his autobiography, “The Joy of Living,” recounting his early life, his life with his wife Isabelle, his life in medicine, and his life in the military. This autobiography can be considered the first history of the ACS since Martin recounts the story of how it came to be founded and much about its first 1 twenty years of existence. Isabelle was the daughter of Dr. John Hollister, a founder of Northwestern University Medical School where he was one of Martin’s professors. She and Franklin married in 1886 and she supported him at every step of his career. They lived their whole life in the Chicago area, and travelled widely, often in connection with the activities of the American College of Surgeons. Scope and Content This collection contains the combined papers of Franklin H. Martin and his wife, Isabelle H. Martin. It includes personal and professional correspondence, casebooks, records of hospitals and medical schools with which Martin was associated, speeches, professional writings, correspondence related to Martin’s publications, diaries, obituaries, tributes, photographs, items Martin collected over his long career, and scrapbooks. Also included are documents reflecting the Martins’ early lives, such as family lineage and heritage materials, school books, and photos. The Martins' world travels, most often to visit surgeons and particularly in South America, are documented with brochures, photos, souvenirs, and correspondence with medical and surgical associations. 2 Arrangement/File Inventory --------------------------- TABLE OF CONTENTS ---------------------------------- I.

Martin Johnson Copyright by Russell MacKenzie Fehr 2016 The Dissertation of Russell MacKenzie Fehr is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgements As is always the case when engaged in a massive project that has spanned an entire continent, there are more people to thank than I possibly could, including many whose names I will never know. The following, therefore, is just a partial consideration of those who deserve credit for this dissertation. The faculty of California State University, Sacramento, particularly Chloe Burke, Frank Garosi, Charles Postel, Brian Schoen, and Mona Siegel, encouraged me through their words and deeds to become a historian. Robert Dimit and Robin Nagle offered me further encouragement at New York University. Without the advice of Peter Wosh, I would have not been able to obtain a foothold as a scholar, and his continued support has been one of the things keeping me going throughout this project. At the University of California, Riverside, I have had the fortunate experience of having many scholars whom have been willing to offer their support over the last seven years.

  • 5. Create More Bike and Pedestrian Ways to Connect Parks and Boulevards
    Logan Square Open Space Plan 5. Create More Bike and Pedestrian Ways to Connect Parks and Boulevards The development of new bikeways combined with improvements to existing ones could provide recreation and transportation alternatives for area residents and workers. Safe pedestrian connections and enhanced bike circulation could also improve access to existing and proposed parks and to the boulevards. On the west side of the community area, a new bike route could connect Kosciuszko Park, Mozart Elementary School (proposed campus park site), Mozart Park and Ames Elementary School. It is also recommended that the boulevards could be safely accessed through new bike routes on Wrightwood Avenue and Palmer Street (access to proposed re-designed Palmer Square), and an enhanced bike route on Armitage Avenue. Safe pedestrian and bike connection should be provided to all Bloomingdale Linear Park access points. Suggested locations All bikeway limits are only within the geography of the Logan Square Open Space Plan. The full length of the bike- way may go beyond the scope of this geography. PROPOSED BIKE LANE: 5’ to 6’ wide section on each side of the street reserved for bicycle use, identified with special pavement markings and signs. • Diversey Avenue (between Milwaukee Avenue and Damen Avenue) • Damen Avenue (between Diversey Avenue and Webster Avenue) • Armitage Avenue (between Humboldt Boulevard and Western Avenue) • Around Palmer Square (see Recommendation #2) • Logan Boulevard (between Milwaukee Avenue and Western Avenue) 26 Logan Square Open Space Plan PROPOSED ENHANCED EXISTING BIKE ROUTE: Cars and bikes share the street; Pavement marking and signs bring potential cyclist presence to drivers’ attention, provide dis- tance and directions to cyclists.

  • Fishbein, Morris, (Cont.), Campaign Against Quackery, 7-26;
    An Interview with Morris Fishbein, M.D. This is the transcript of an interview with Morris Fishbein, M.D., held at his apartment in , on March 12, 1968. Dr. Fishbein received his B.S. degree from the University of Chicago in 1910, his M.D. degree from Rush Medical College in 1912, and almost imediately thereafter began his distinguished career as medical editor. He served the American Medical Associa- tion as editor both of its Journal, from 1913 to 1949, and of its popular health magazine, Hygeia, from 1924 to 1949. Among curxent editorships held by Dr. Fishbein are those of Medical --World Neys and World-Wide Abstracts of General Medicine. In late 1969 Dr. Fishbein's fuller reflections on his career were published by Doubleday as Morris Fishbein, e.;an Auto- biography. Charles 0. Jackson, the interviewer, now at the University of Tennessee, received his Ph.D. degree in history from Emory Univer- sity in 1967, writing a dissertation on "Food and Drug Law RefOrm in the New Deal." In revised form the dissertation was scheduled for publication during 1970 by Princeton University Press. Mr. J.: I wonder if we might maybe begin by getting you to tell me a little bit about how you became associated with the AMA. Dr. F.: I graduated in medicine from Rush Medical College in 1912. Previously to that, I became Assistant to Professor Ludwig Hektoen in 1910. I did many post mortem examinations, research projects, published five research papers and then I helped build and was first resident in the Durand Hospital for Infectious Diseases for about eighteen months.

Without the support of my professors, my cohort, my family, and my friends, I would not have been able to write this thesis. First, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Elaine Frantz. Without her support, enthusiasm, and patience, this thesis would not have been possible. When I doubted myself and wondered if I was capable of seeing graduate school through, she encouraged me; when I worried over the Covid-19 pandemic and was unable to think about this thesis for a few weeks, she understood and told me to take the time I needed. I could not have done this without her. I would also like to thank my committee members: Dr. Kevin Adams, Dr. Matthew Crawford, and Dr. Tara Smith. They all provided me with helpful comments and criticism, bringing up things I would not have considered on my own, and encouraged me to think outside of the box.
