Abstract
Margaret Ann Storkan (August 27, 1919 - December 3, 2000) was a harbinger for women
in dermatology in the 20th century. After graduating as one of the only two women in her medical school class
at Creighton University School of Medicine in 1944, she went on to become the second
woman to serve on the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Board of Directors and
the first woman elected as Vice-President for the AAD. Her footprints as a researcher,
professor, overseas volunteer, and woman dermatologist may be found throughout dermatologic
history in publications, teachings, professional societies, charitable contributions,
and most of all through the lives of those she touched.
