2007 Honoree of Jewish-American Hall of Fame: Lillian Wald

I was recently sent an e-mail about Lillian Wald being named the 2007 Jewish-American Hall of Fame honoree. Ms. Wald was a Jewish-American Rochester, New York native who is regarded as the founder of "Visiting Nursing" in the U.S. and Canada. She attended New York Hospital's School of Nursing. According to an article on Nurse.com, Ms. Wald has been referred to as the "Jewish Florence Nightingale."
