Occupation |
She had a PHD on chemistry. She eventually rose to the position of Associate Professor at the University of Kansas but, because her interest tended towards scientific literature, her work was not prized in the academic environment as much as laboratory investigations were.
She left teaching to devote more time to her writing. In 1967 she received the Dexter Award. This award was given out by the American Chemical Society for "outstanding career of contributions to the history of chemistry". |
