Make Room for Daddy

Judith Walzer Leavitt, MAT'65, AM'66, PhD'75
Author

From our pages (Nov-Dec/09): "In the 1940s expectant fathers would sit in a hospital waiting room, far from the action, and nervously await news of their new son or daughter. By the 1980s, however, most hospitals allowed fathers into the delivery rooms. Historian Leavitt traces the increasing involvement of fathers in the childbirth process through personal letters and interviews, as well as hospital archives and popular culture."
