Among the 40 medical artists gathered today at the Louisiana
State University medical school for the second annual convention of the Association of Medical Illustrators was Miss Elizabeth Broedel daughter of the founder of the first school for the profession
Max Broedel, who died in 1941, established the school at Johns Hopkins in 1910 and headed it until his death. His daughter has followed in his footsteps and does medical illustrations for the woman's clinic of the New York hospital.
"Photography has replaced much of the detailed work of illustrating what was done in my father's time," said Miss Broedel, who is working on illustrations for a textbook of obstetrics at present.
