          These files represent an almost complete official record of the Clinical Excellence Committee, the Task Forces, and their subcommittees. The minutes are complete, with only one exception. There are few interim reports or correspondence among the coordinators, the chairmen of the committees, and members. The final report is contained in Box 2, folder 1.

          Some of the minutes have notes made by Dr. Thomas Chalmers, President and Dean of The Mount Sinai Medical Center and School of Medicine. The files probably came from that office, although, aside from these few notes, they are generic.

          Dr. Jeanne Baer describes her family’s background in Germany and France in the years leading up to World War II, their life evading German troops in France, and their move to the US in 1948. She discusses her schooling in Pennsylvania, and her acceptance and training experiences in medical school through her residency in medicine. She provides interesting details of training in the 1960s including fellowship training in gastroenterology and finally her appointment to the radiology department at St. Luke’s Hospital and the work she did there. Baer particularly mentions Dr. Virginia Kanick with whom she formed a close friendship and training in the 60s and 70s as a woman in what was a man’s field.
