Annie Warburton Goodrich, 1866-1954
Dean 1923-1934


  

"The school at Yale University is avowedly committed to an experiment, a much needed and most important one in our educational field. Our Miss Goodrich, who has undertaken this task, is by temperament and habit a pioneer and a resolute and adventurous one. She has no fear of treading any new path. Her capacity for brilliant leadership is well known, and her long and richly varied experience in administrative tasks in nursing will enable her to make the fullest possible use of the inspiring opportunities and resources before her."

Adelaide Nutting
From "How can we care for our patients and educate the nurse?" a talk presented at the second annual meeting of the Pennsylvania Hospital Association Held at Philadelphia, April 26-27, 1923.

Elizabeth Bixler and
Annie Goodrich, 1953
