“African American Midwife Maude Callen Delivering a Baby” by W. Eugene Smith, 1951
One remarkable moment in the public depiction of the midwife occurred in December 1951, when in a photo-essay for Life magazine, W. Eugene Smith introduced Mrs. Maude Callen, a nurse midwife practicing in rural South Carolina.
Callen traveled 36,000 miles a year over back roads to administer the only medical care many poor [B]lacks were likely to receive.
Maude Callen persuaded [the Division of Maternal and Child Health assistant director] to secure Penn Center, originally a school for newly freed slaves, as a site for the [midwifery] institutes because of its symbolic value in the Lowcountry communities served disproportionally by midwives. Training took place in the historic school buildings beneath moss-draped live oaks on a barrier island claimed by [B]lack farm families after the Civil War. Participants frequently described the experience as “inspirational.”
Working in the rural South in the 1950s, in “an area of some 400 square miles veined with muddy roads,” as LIFE put it, Callen served as “doctor, dietician, psychologist, bail-goer and friend” to thousands of poor (most of them desperately poor) patients…After the piece was published, LIFE subscribers from all over the country sent donations, large and small, to help Mrs. Callen in what one reader called “her magnificent endeavor”…
Maude Callen died in 1990 at the age of 91 in Pineville, South Carolina, where she had lived, and served, for seven decades.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/e15820bfbe30d106c738c2e12a7c5b4f/tumblr_mke26mWQEI1qjeot1o1_500.jpg)
