World-renowned orthodontist Dr. Earl Renfroe also broke down barriers for African-Americans in the mid 20th Century.
Dr. Renfroe often broke down barriers for African-Americans. He integrated dental care at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry at a time when virtually no other schools had done so. He was a brilliant hands-on clinical orthodontist whose international reputation enhanced that of the UIC College of Dentistry, where Dr. Renfroe was a faculty member from the 1930s through the 1980s. The UIC College of Dentistry Press is proud to have published Earl Renfroe--A Man of Firsts.
