Biographical Files
The biographical files consist of folders of biographical information
about individuals associated with the Johns Hopkins Hospital and/or
the medical divisions of the Johns Hopkins University (School of
Public Health, School of Medicine, and School of Nursing.) The files
include
retired or deceased faculty, staff, and alumni as well as individuals
with current appppointments and individuals who have terminated their
Hopkins affiliation but are still active within their profession.
In general, the content of these files is somewhat uneven in terms
of
quantity, and in some cases, quality of information; folders may
have inclusive biographical information including curricula vita,
bibliographies,
biographical sketches, obituaries, and press clippings while others
may contain only a scant press clipping or two. Overall the collection
is a useful resource for obtaining basic biographical information.
Currently there are over 12,500 individuals listed. New material
is continually being added and the folder listings are regularly
updated.
The dates of materials in these files range from the late nineteenth
century to the present.
