Please join me in wishing Professor Ruth Lawrence a Happy 100th Birthday! She is a University of Rochester legendary faculty member whose impact in improving maternal/child care worldwide is undeniable. And to think she did this during a time when there were hardly any female academic pediatricians, while at the same time raising her nine children! I am in awe! Happy Birthday, Dr. Lawrence! https://lnkd.in/g8KB33kS
Happy birthday, Dr. Lawrence, and thank you for your contributions to medicine and our community!

Happy birthday Ruth - I remember your teaching SON nursing students ( like me) at Highland how to support new Moms learning to breastfeed - you were an amazing inspiration to all of us !
Happy Birthday Dr Lawrence, you were always so generous with your knowledge and time on the floor and in meetings at HH and SMH. A true Icon.

2moHappy Birthday! I fondly remember how you taught us how to cup feed babies during our residency. This helps me to explain the difference between bottle feeding and breast feeding to new moms. Your teaching had a lasting impact!
