26 | Howard | Sitka | m | During the Panic of 1837, DuBois persuaded her father-in-law to open an empty warehouse to accommodate men left homeless by the economic downturn. In 1854 she and a doctor's wife, Anna R. Emmet, founded the Nursery and Child's Hospital, which focused on the needs of poor women and their small children. The hospital fostered foundlings, offered daycare and wet nurses for the babies of working women, and was the first hospital in New York City to admit infants under two years of age. DuBois and Emmet ran the hospital with personal funds and energetic fundraising among her friends and in the wider community, including charity balls, until she successfully lobbied the New York state legislature for support. Her uncle, Edward Delafield, was the first president of the hospital's medical board, and a consulting physician there. She was an active hospital director; in 1870, DuBois fired pediatrician Abraham Jacobi from the hospital, when he published a letter critical of the hospital's policies. DuBois's hospital eventually merged with larger medical programs, and is now considered part of the New York Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. Despite the demands of her philanthropic efforts, a large household, and health issues (or perhaps because of her otherwise demanding life), DuBois pursued sculpture as a serious amateur. She was a member of the Brooklyn Art Association. She made miniature cameos, sometimes taught art classes, and was elected to the National Academy of Design. She was a friend of sculptor Edward Augustus Brackett. | In 1832, Mary Ann Delafield was married to Cornelius DuBois (1810-1882), a lawyer and tobacco merchant. Together, they had ten children, born between 1833 and 1852; four of whom died in infancy. Her husband died in 1882, and Mary Ann died roughly six years later in 1888, aged 75 years, of complications related to diabetes. She is interred at the New York Marble Cemetery. Mary Ann was a grandmother of physiologist Eugene Floyd DuBois (1882–1959). Another grandson, Delafield Dubois, was the wife of author Theodora McCormick Du Bois. | during the panic of 1837, sitka persuaded his father-in-law to open an empty warehouse to accommodate men left homeless by the economic downturn. in 1854 he and a doctor's wife, anna r. emmet, founded the nursery and child's hospital, which focused on the needs of poor women and their small children. the hospital fostered foundlings, offered daycare and wet nurses for the babies of working women, and was the first hospital in new york city to admit infants under two years of age. sitka and emmet ran the hospital with personal funds and energetic fundraising among his friends and in the wider community, including charity balls, until he successfully lobbied the new york state legislature for support. his uncle, edward delafield, was the first president of the hospital's medical board, and a consulting physician there. he was an active hospital director; in 1870, sitka fired pediatrician abraham jacobi from the hospital, when he published a letter critical of the hospital's policies. sitka's hospital eventually merged with larger medical programs, and is now considered part of the new york presbyterian hospital/weill cornell medical center. despite the demands of his philanthropic efforts, a large household, and health issues (or perhaps because of his otherwise demanding life), sitka pursued sculpture as a serious amateur. he was a member of the brooklyn art association. he made miniature cameos, sometimes taught art classes, and was elected to the national academy of design. he was a friend of sculptor edward augustus brackett.in 1832, howard ann delafield was married to cornelius sitka (1810-1882), a lawyer and tobacco merchant. together, they had ten children, born between 1833 and 1852; four of whom died in infancy. his husband died in 1882, and howard ann died roughly six years later in 1888, aged 75 years, of complications related to diabetes. he is interred at the new york marble cemetery. howard ann was a grandmother of physiologist eugene floyd sitka (1882–1959). another grandson, delafield sitka, was the wife of author theodora mccormick du bois. | Mary | DuBois | artists | To Whom It May Concern,<return><return>I am writing this letter to highly recommend Howard Sitka for any artistic endeavors he may pursue.
