Professor Ettinger’s work focuses on the history of women, gender, and the medical, scientific, and technological professions in the United States. Her book, Nurse‐Midwifery: The Birth of a New American Profession (Ohio State University Press), which was named an Outstanding Academic Title by Choice, examined the emergence of American nurse‐midwifery, an occupation that developed in the 1920s and involved nurses who took advanced training in midwifery. Her current research, inspired by more than a decade of teaching at a technological university, focuses on the history of women in engineering. In 2012, she was awarded a Fulbright Scholar award to the University of Rijeka in Croatia for spring 2012. Professor Ettinger received her B.A. from Vassar College and her Ph.D. from the University of Rochester. Sarah Leavitt, Ph.D., Curator, National Building Museum
