Who is Margaret Morgan Lawrence?
Who is Margaret Morgan Lawrence?
Dr. Margaret Morgan Lawrence was a pioneer in the child psychiatry and mental health field, who faced challanges of racism and sexism throughout her career. Through her resilience and determination, Margaret became the first African American to complete residency at the New York Psychiatric Institute in 1948 and the first Black trainee certified in psychoanalysis at Columbia University.
After earning her degree from Cornell University, Margaret was denied entry into Cornell Medical School due to her race, but overcame that barrier when she became the third Black woman to attend Columbia University of Physicians and Surgeons. She founded the Rockland County Center for Mental Health and served as chief of the Developmental Psychiatry Service at Harlem Hospital for over two decades. Recognized with the J.R. Bernstein Mental Health Award in 1975, her work emphasized the integration of psychoanalysis with community health approaches.
