Scope and Contents

From the Series:

Publicity series materials include newspaper clippings, magazine articles, correspondence, printed matter, and photographs which report on Kantrowitz's activities and notable events in the thoracic field and general medicine. All acidic newspaper clippings were photocopied onto acid free paper; the originals were discarded and the photocopies were retained. There are two sub-series: the Research and Professional Activities sub-series and the General Medical Subject Files sub-series. The primary focus of the Research and Professional Activities sub-series is Kantrowitz's research, promotions, conference attendance, and speaking engagements, but it also documents accomplishments of contemporary surgeons such as Michael E. DeBakey and Christiaan Barnard. The General Medical Subject Files sub-series covers a broad range of trends and achievements both in Kantrowitz's area of expertise and other medical fields. Items within each sub-series are arranged chronologically by date.
