Abstract

Date Presented 4/18/2015

A historical study of Helen Willard (1894 to 1980) and Clare Spackman (1909 to 1992) included document review and interviews with family members and colleagues. Findings relate to current occupational therapy concerns of practitioners’ occupational balance, developing leadership, and globalization.
