EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we see the remarkable Dr. Josephine Baker, a trailblazing figure in the field of child hygiene during the early 20th century. Serving as the head of the Child Hygiene Department of the Department of Health in New York City, Dr. Baker's influence and dedication extended far beyond her local community. Captured by photographer Jessie Tarbox Beals between 1917-19, this gelatin silver photo showcases Dr. Baker seated confidently behind her desk, adorned in a striped shirt, tie, and glasses that exude professionalism and intelligence. As one gazes upon this image, it becomes evident that Dr. Josephine Baker was not just an ordinary physician; she was a visionary leader who supervised the health of more children than any other woman in the world at that time. Her tireless efforts to improve child welfare made an indelible impact on countless lives. This photograph serves as a testament to both Dr. Baker's significant accomplishments and her enduring legacy within public health history. It is through her pioneering work that future generations were able to benefit from improved healthcare practices for children. Preserved within the collection of The New-York Historical Society in America, this powerful image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents progress and compassion towards ensuring better lives for our most vulnerable population – our children.
