Papers, ca. 1890-1972 | WorldCat.org (original) (raw)

Summary:There is much correspondence, as well as reports, notebooks, lectures, diaries, photographs, and reprints. Heiser, who was a preeminent public health physician, created a rich archive of material documenting all phases of his career, especially the international health work of the Rockefeller Foundation from 1905-1934. There are voluminous, detailed, and interesting diaries for the whole course of this life (ca. 68 v., 1908-1972). There are notebooks reflecting on his early training and work (21 v., 1890-1907), and 3 volumes from lectures he attended at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia (grad., 1898)
