Ruth her nine children. Her personal and professional experiences converged, strengthening her belief that was both a public health priority and a foundation of and wellness.

Our hearts go out to the family, friends, and colleagues of Dr. Ruth A. Lawrence, MD, FAAP, FAACT, a pioneering figure in lactation medicine who passed away at the age of 101.

Her legacy as an educator, researcher, and passionate advocate lives on through the many families she helped and the field she transformed. Dr. Lawrence revolutionized breastfeeding medicine with her groundbreaking research and advocacy. She established the nation's first Breastfeeding and Human Lactation Study Center and authored the definitive medical textbook "Breastfeeding: A Guide for the Medical Profession," which remains the gold standard for clinicians worldwide.

We are forever grateful for her vision, leadership, and unwavering dedication to supporting families. Her life's work continues to inspire all those who champion breastfeeding support.

We encourage you to learn more about Dr. Lawrence's extraordinary life and remarkable accomplishments at https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/news/story/ruth-a-lawrence-md-19242025-a-trailblazer-in-lactation-medicine-and-child-health.

May her memory be a blessing.
