Margaret Floy Washburn


 Hi Blogger! Today I’m going to talk about one person I admire very much is Margaret Floy Washburn. She was born on July 25, 1871 in New York. Her family had no major economic problems and had a good situation, but they traveled a lot from city to city which made him have problems adapting to some of them. After leaving school, she decided to study psychology at Columbia University and was the first woman to obtain a doctoral degree in psychology. She also became president of the APA (American Psychological Association) in 1921, she was the second woman to achieve it. A great milestone for history and a pride for all women! I admire her for being a struggling woman and despite the adversities that arose in her time to study psychology she achieved it and was an influential and important woman. I hope one day to have such important achievements as Margaret's, be influential in the world of psychology and show that women are capable of everything!
