of male physicians' service in the military. In 1918, members of the Medical Women's National Association voted to establish Lovejoy as their first Vice President. The following year, Lovejoy was asked to be the new chair of the American Women's Hospitals (AWH), formerly referred to as the War Service Committee. She then became the MWNA's acting president months later after Etta Gray, the president at the time, left to provide care in Serbia. She led the AWH from her first appointment in 1919 until passing away in 1967. Under her guidance, the AWH had many objectives, one of which was to provide services in the public health sector in addition to establishing various orphanages and clinics in war-torn areas. During World War II in 1939, the AWH expanded their services by providing care in Greece, Britain and the Far East. The association ultimately provided service to victims of war in almost 30 different nations. Medical Women's International Association (MWIA) During the first World War, there were women physicians all over the world that were providing care in hospitals, clinics and volunteer organizations, no matter which side of the conflict their country was on. This prompted Lovejoy, acting president of the MWNA, to host an international conference that would allow women to share their stories and experiences. The conference was held in New York from September 15 to October 24, 1919; over 100 women physicians from 16 different nations were in attendance. Although they discussed a wide variety of topics, they were all centered around a common theme: women's health. At the end of the conference, Lovejoy and the MWNA held a reception dinner for the international medical personnel and the members of the AWH returning from service abroad. The guests continued to share stories of war and service from around the globe, leading to the formation of the Medical Women's International Association (MWIA). The group's goal was to allow medical women of varying nationalities to continue to serve and share their work with each other. Lovejoy was elected as the first president of the association, serving from 1919 to 1924. Publications After returning from France in 1918 and concluding her speaking tour, Lovejoy published a book titled The House of the Good Neighbor in 1919. The book described her trip to Europe and the work that she accomplished with the Red Cross and various charity hospitals. Before her death, Dr.
