Dr. Maude Glasgow (1876–1955) was an early pioneer in public health and preventive medicine as well as an activist for equal rights.

But she wanted to learn more so she continued her studies and received a degree in medicine in 1901 from Cornell University Medical College.

[2][3] Glasgow was a member of both the International Mark Twain and Eugene Field Societies as well as the Medical Women's National Association.

She published a number of books about medicine and women's health as well as the emigration of the Scots-Irish to the US.

She was also remembered in her obituary as a suffragist and activist in equal rights for women and people of all races.
