| Abstract | Lewis Terman is considered the forefather of gifted education, but our field’s foremother, Leta Stetter Hollingworth (1886-1939), has not enjoyed the same level of recognition. When she is remembered, her name is usually mispronounced and misspelled. (No &dquo;s&dquo; in Hollingworth, please.) This is a perfect year to rediscover the contributions of Leta Hollingworth since it marks the 50th anniversary of her death. (We missed her 100th birthday by three years!) Hollingworth continues to be a moving force in gifted education. Her life, her values, her dedication to gifted children remain an inspiration for us all. |
