The inventory is separated into five sections: (1) Physicians, Dentists, Scientists and Healers; (2) Nursing and Midwifery; (3) Black Hospitals and Medical Schools; (4) General Histories of African Americans in Medicine and Black Health Care, Colonial to 19th Century; and, (5) General Histories of African Americans in Medicine and Black Health Care, Post-Reconstruction to Present. Section five includes those histories of black health care in the twentieth century that focus on a particular disease or are limited to a specific geographic area. In each section those books found in NLM's General Collection are listed first and followed by those located in NLM's History of Medicine collection. This collection of books is instructive in several ways. The titles listed under the section, "Physicians, Dentists, Scientists, and Healers," reveal that for the most part, these books are compendiums of articles on great individuals who lived in the twentieth century that document their contributions to medicine and science and to particular specialties. Nevertheless, these texts are critical in constructing a black medical profession and appreciating many of the obstacles these pioneers faced in achieving a voice in mainstream medicine and a leadership role in their profession. The books on "Nursing and Midwifery" reflect a deeper analysis of the role of African American women in creating a nursing profession separate from that of white nurses and then their effort to integrate themselves into the larger nursing profession and its professional societies. These books are written by historians and chronicle the lives of founders of the African American nursing profession and the professional societies that represented these women. In addition there are case studies of African American public health nurses that effectively integrate these women into their social and political context. The histories of African American nurse midwifery include both biographies and analyses of the contributions of African American midwives and midwifery to health care of blacks in the South. The books on "Black Hospitals and Medical Schools" contain studies written by historians as well as chapters on medical education of African Americans in the nineteenth and twentieth century. Similar to scholarship on African American physicians, there are few comprehensive studies of the history of the black hospital in the context of the larger American system of health care delivery. The general histories of African Americans in Medicine and Black Health Care offer a rigorous historical assessment of health and medical care of slaves in Virginia and Louisiana, and on plantations in other southern states. There is more published on this subject than any other in the field of African American medical history. Recently. .1 several excellent histories have been written addressing the impact of racism on health care for African Americans from the colonial period to the present, and in the post-World War II period. Some of the best historical scholarship is found in the general histories of African Americans in Medicine and Black Health Care, and any scholar entering the field, should begin with a thorough read of books in this section. Lastly, the NLM contains all of the major histories of African American medical care that focus on a particular disease or a specific area of the country. These include the works on the Tuskegee Syphilis Study as well as scholarship on sickle cell disease, syphilis, tuberculosis, maternal health, rural health, and mental health. Manuscript Collections and Oral Histories of African Americans in Medicine, and Material on African Americans in Medicine in Manuscript Collections There are four collections of manuscripts specifically of African Americans in Medicine. These collections reflect the lives of an African American Gastroenterologist (Dr. Leonidas Berry), an African American Commissioned Officer in the Public Health Service (John C. Eason), an African American Professor of Preventive Medicine and Epidemiology (Dr. Paul Comely), and the first African American Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service (Dr. Jocelyn Elders). Three of the collections are unprocessed. The one collection that has been processed fully, that of Dr. Leonidas Berry, provides an excellent look at the life of one of the leading spokesmen for the African American profession as an educator, specialist, and advocate for the racial integration of health care in the United States. Fortunately, there is additional material that can supplement these manuscript collections, such as the oral history conducted with John C. Eason, and the two autobiographies, one written on Dr. Leonidas Berry, and one on Dr. Jocelyn Elders. HMD's manuscript collection does contain material on African Americans in Medicine when one looks more closely at the contents of the individual collections themselves. This material has been described specifically as it relates to a particular collection. The most significant amount of "undiscovered" material is located in the collection of the American College of Nurse Midwives and includes photographs and written materials on African American nurse midwives in the North and South. Many of the print images of African American nurse midwives are included in NLM's Images in the History of Medicine on-line data base. These images are listed separately under "Print Images of African Americans in Medicine" of this inventory. In addition, HMD has the archival material that document the origin and termination of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study in 1973 under the leadership of the commission chaired by Broadus N. Butler, president of Dillard University. Mitchell Brown has produced one of the best sources of biographical information on African Americans in Science. He has published this material on a website: www.princcion.edu/~-mchrovYn displayTaces.html. It includes African Americans who have received PhDs in a field of science and also notes those who were the first to 4 receive their degree. In addition, there is material on some of the leading African American physician-scientists. Transcribed written oral histories with African American physicians and scientists are scant. These oral histories are found within larger collections under the headings of "Women in Medicine", and the American Hospital Association's collection (with each oral history catalogued separately). In addition there is an oral history conducted with Vivien Thomas, and one with John C. Eason. Lastly, there are several videotaped oral histories listed under the "Videos and Films" section of this inventory. Photographs and On-line Images of African Americans in Medicine Print images of African Americans in Medicine are on-line through the National Library of Medicine's website: lit tp:// w wav i hm. n 1 m. n i h. no v. There are over 200 print images currently part of the database and many more in books in HMD's collection. The Print Image collection is rich in images of African Americans in roles as health professionals serving in various capacities in public health. These include their contributions to public health epidemics, public health nursing, rural health, as well as officers in the US Public Health Service. There are numerous images of African American nurses working in military hospitals and dispensing care in clinics. Perhaps the most remarkable "'undiscovered" collection in 1HM is that of African American nurse midwives. There are 72 images on-line that capture the contributions of these women in educating expecting and post-partum women in their homes, conducting well-baby clinics, and dispensing care in rural communities. There are granny midwives and men midwives. In addition, there are many images of two training schools for African American nurse midwives, one at Frogmore, South Carolina, and one at Florida A & M in Tallahassee, Florida. These include pictures of the faculty and deans, the students in the classroom and in the delivery suite, as well as images of the students and faculty partaking in recreation and graduation exercises. The IHM collection does include portraits of several leading physicians and some of the leadership of Howard and Meharry Medical Schools. It captures some of the contributions of African Americans to the National Institutes of Health. All of the print images in this inventory are identified by their order number and whenever possible, are described using the information on the subject card of the photograph itself. Each image is listed under the keyword used to identify the print image in IHM. Lastly, this inventory includes a list of photographs located in manuscript collections of HMD, and in historical books in HMD's collection. These additional images expand the collection of prints of African Americans in Medicine to over 300. Until these print images are entered into the on-line catalogue, they can be obtained only through acquisition directly from the HMD staff of the National Library of Medicine. "\ The second section of "Photographs and On-line Images" lists the on-line photographs of African Americans in Medicine by various subject headings, such as physicians and scientists, nurses, midwives and laboratory technicians. These images again can be obtained from http://wwwihm.nlm.nih.uov through use of the order number listed to the left of each image. Videos and Films of African Americans in Medicine This is the area most in need of material and yet, the NLM has the majority of known video productions of African Americans in Medicine. The lack of material in the area is a reflection that little effort has been expended to record and document through video oral history the lives and contributions of African Americans to the profession of medicine. Of the 121 oral histories conducted through the Alpha Omega Alpha Leaders in Medicine series, only three were conducted with African Americans, and of the 89 oral histories that comprise the American Hospital Association's collection, only two were conducted with African Americans. Most of NLM's videos on African Americans in Medicine are found in the general collection and include films on some of the most famous African American physicians as well as more general videos on African American surgeons and radiologists. Several of these videos have published histories that can be used to supplement the video recording. The video collection also contains recordings of historians who have delivered lectures as part of the NLM's "Black History Month" series. These presentations capture broader subjects, such as black folk medicine and black burial grounds. In closing, I would like to thank the managers of HMD's collections who include Jan Lazarus, John Rees, and Nancy Dosch for their assistance in helping identify materials for this "Guide", Tylka Vetula for proofing the photographs and on-line image section for accuracy, and John Hope Franklin for his editorial suggestions and endorsement.
