content: Ida Johanna Heiberger (1858-1938) attended the 1880/81 and 1882/83 sessions of the Medical College at Howard University, graduated from the Women’s Medical College in Philadelphia in 1885, and spent a further year studying medicine in Switzerland and Germany. This black graduation cape is from that European experience. Returning to Washington, D.C., Dr. Heiberger established the Women’s Clinic in 1890, and worked there for 30 years.
