The History of Veterinary Medicine Through Eyes of The WVMA Past-presidents






   The WVMA Oral Histories                                                                     of the past-presidents book

       The WVMA Historical Committee was assigned the task by the 1996 
WVMA Executive Board to interview 30 WVMA  past-presidents from 1951 
to 1995, a period of 44 years.  These interviews were tape recorded by 
members of the committee, then transcribed by Ms. Margie Flagel, a 
transcriptionist at the UW-SVM and then checked by the interviewee for 
accuracy.   Dr. Fred J. Born, Chairman, Dr. Frank Gentile, Dr. Quint Metzig 
and Dr. Burr Nussdorfer, Sr. worked in teams of two, crossing the state 
to record the important achievements of that year, during that WVMA 
presidency. In 1999, the WVMA published this 128-page book, an 
outstanding record of veterinary medical history.
