Florence Schorske Wald began her illustrious career as a visiting nurse in New York City shortly after she earned a B.A. from Mt. Holyoke College in 1938 and a Master of Nursing from Yale University in 1941. From 1956-1952, she was a research assistant in the College of Physicians and Surgeons.   In 1955, she secured a position as an instructor at the Rutgers University School of Nursing.  Two years later she returned to Yale as Acting Dean of the School of Nursing and Associate Professor.  Success followed, and within a year the leadership position was made official and Wald was appointed the fourth Dean of the Yale University School of Nursing..

WRITER, POET, PROFESSOR

Victoria Redel is a woman of courage. See her Bandy quotation: “Oh why don’t you work like other men do? “How the hell can I work when the sky is so blue?”
Or see her decision to go to Dartmouth College so soon after it went co-ed. Redel also earned a Masters in Fine Arts from Columbia University.
