Starr was a member of the Staff of the Columbia University Oral History project, Mr. Starr had worked on newspapers in Tennessee and Chicago and was author of Bohemian Brigade , a study of Civil War newspapers. This is an exciting book about the newspapermen who set out to report the shattering events of the Civil War to the people at home. You can red how the world first heard of Fort Sumter, Bull Run, Shiloh, Gettysburg, Appomattox, and many other battle. For the first time, Lincoln's relations with the reporters have been set down.

Louis Starr (1849-1925) Became A Visiting Physician At The Maternity Hospital, The Northern Home For Destitute Children, And Children'S Hospital Of Philadelphia (Founded 1855); This Experience Provided Starr With His Education In Pediatrics. In 1880 Starr Began Lecturing On The Diseases Of Children In The University Of Pennsylvania Medical School, And In 1884, When Penn Created The Position Of Clinical Professor Of Diseases Of Children, Starr Became Penn'S First Professor Of Pediatrics. This Development Was Part Of The Separation Of The Old Field Of Midwifery Into Three Separate Professorships: Obstetrics, Gynecology, And Pediatrics. Starr Gave Up His Chair At The Age Of 41, Supposedly Because The Wards Of The Hospital Of The University Of Pennsylvania Did Not Provide Facilities For Children, Thus Making It Very Difficult For Him To Include Practical Demonstrations In His Teaching. After Leaving Penn'S Medical School, Starr Continued His Private Practice While Also Writing And Lecturing On Pediatrics. Starr Was The Author Of Various Medical Works Including Diseases Of Digestive System In Children, Hygiene Of The Nursery, And The Adolescent Period. He Also Served As The American Editor Of Goodheart'S Diseases Of Children. Starr Was A Member Of Many Medical Societies, Including The American Pediatric Society, The Philadelphia College Of Physicians, And The Association Of American Physicians.…
