Joan Echtenkamp Klein, the Alvin V. and Nancy Baird Curator for Historical Collections & Services at the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library, University of Virginia, conceived the idea for the “Fever Fighters” project after the generous donation of Dr. Hanson’s diary by his granddaughter, Jane H. Monroe.

Staff members at Historical Collections, Leigh Mantle, Susan Yowell, and Janet Pearson, contributed content and created the GIS Map.  Caitlin Summers, a dedicated intern at Historical Collections, also provided editorial assistance in spring 2012.

David Moody, Library Webmaster; Mike Wilson, Information Services Specialist; and Jason Bennett, Technology Specialist, provided the programming architecture for the Web exhibit.
