Biographical History
Born in 1895 in Ohio, doctor Marie Pichel Warner worked for the birth control movement in the United States. Among Warner’s many positions, she founded the birth control clinic at the Recreation Rooms Settlement House in Manhattan in the 1930s; in 1940, she became medical director there. She served as medical director of contraceptive clinics at New York City’s Jewish Memorial Hospital. Recognizing the value of the nonprint media, Warner gave talks about birth control over radio station WEVD and produced a film on the subject in the 1930s. She took the cause to the road and traveled throughout the United States, lecturing and visiting other clinics. In addition to these activities, she ran a private practice and published articles and books on contraception and infertility.
