Pauline Boss -Teachers Make a Difference - Carl Whitaker, M.D.

The speaker reflects on the significant influences in their educational journey, starting with their immigrant family who valued education highly. Despite financial challenges, the speaker's father supported their college education, which was uncommon for women in the 1950s. In graduate school, the speaker met Carl Whitaker, a pioneer in family therapy, who introduced them to a more spontaneous and creative approach to learning, contrasting with their structured upbringing. This blend of structured and spontaneous learning shaped the speaker's career as a scholar and educator.
