Growing up in a suburb of St. Louis, Shirley was expected to never give up. When she decided that she wanted to go to physical therapy school at Washington University, she persisted. Later, Shirley would not give up when faced with challenging questions about neurological patients in the clinic. This would lead her into a PhD program and eventually vault her into a faculty position at her alma mater. When she came up with the idea of aligning our professional identity with movement, Shirley didn't give up.
40 some-odd years later, Shirley's vision for the profession was partially realized. She continues to have ideas about where physical therapy should go in the future and what things we should jettison on the way.
