Harriet Forman Papers

Harriet Forman, RN, EdD graduated from the Mt. Sinai Hospital School of Nursing (NYC) and earned her EdD from Teachers College, Columbia University. Always dreaming of being a nurse and an author, she wove her two loves into one career launching Nursing Spectrum and remaining its Executive Director for eleven years, retiring from that position in 2001.

The collection consists primarily of articles written by Forman for Nursing Spectrum and other journals spanning the 1990s to mid-2000s. Included are her doctoral dissertation, her re-edited collection of Helen Wells’ Cherry Ames books, and her book, Nursing Leadership for Patient-Centered Care-Authentic Presence Intuition Experience.
