Biographical History
Nutritionist Sara Clemen Parks joined the Penn State faculty in the College of Health and Human Development in 1975, became associate dean in 1994, and director of the School of Hotel Restaurant, and Recreation Management in 2003. She retired emerita in 2005. She was a long-time member of the American Dietetic Association, and was elected Secretary Treasurer (1990-1992) and president (1993-1994). She received the American Dietetic Association's highest honor, the Marjorie Hulsizer Copher Award, in 1996. The American Dietetic Association (ADA) was founded in 1917 to help the government conserve food and improve public health during World War I. It has become the largest organization of food and nutrition professionals in the United States. Approximately 75 % of ADA members are registered dietitians; other members include researchers, educators, students, clinical and community dietetics professionals, consultants and food service managers. Its vision is that ADA members are the most valued source of food and nutrition services.
