Ellen M. Anderson (1943-1966)

As Director of Nursing, Miss Anderson was responsible for both the Columbia Hospital School of Nursing and Nursing Service. Considerable acknowledgement and recognition should be given to her for the major growth and development of Columbia Hospital School of Nursing and Nursing Service. It was Miss Anderson who in 1943 provided the leadership in the reorganization and direction of the school. During her administration she worked tirelessly with the Nursing Education Committee and hospital architects to envision and plan the west wing of the nurses’ residence and the education building which opened in 1956. Miss Anderson received her basic education at the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Science degree in education and received a Masters of Science degree from Columbia University in New York in 1943. She came to Columbia Hospital in 1943 and retired in 1966.
