Biographies

The following biographies highlight the men and women who over time have contributed to the establishment, growth and development of the physician assistant profession.  The biographies are a work in progress and there are literally hundreds of individuals that still need to be recognized for their outstanding contributions to the field and to the health care team concept in American Medicine.  Please contact us should you have an individual who you believe should be recognized by the Society.
