II. Biography

Harvey Grant Taylor was born in San Francisco, California, on July 22, 1903, to Stella May

(Benson) and Benjamin Rush Taylor. When he was five, his family moved to the Canadian

wilderness northwest of Calgary. His formal schooling did not begin until the family returned to

California when he was twelve. He subsequently earned a bachelor’s degree in mechanical

engineering from San Jose State College in 1928 and a master of arts in education from Stanford

in 1929. He did not turn to medicine until he was in his thirties and pursuing a doctorate in

psychology at Stanford. He enrolled at Duke University School of Medicine, completed his

studies in just over three years, and obtained his medical degree in 1939 at the age of thirty-

seven. He interned at Duke Hospital 1939-1940, was an assistant resident there 1940-1941, and

served as a pediatric resident and assistant in research in pathology at Alfred I. DuPont Institute

1941-1942.

In 1942 he met and married Martha Worth "Pat" Rogers in Atlanta, Georgia. During the 1940s,

the Taylors had two sons, Harvey Grant Taylor, Jr., and Worth Rogers Taylor. From 1942 to

1946 Dr. Taylor served in the Army Medical Corps for which he received a Bronze Star and a

battlefield promotion for his work under fire in Okinawa. After the war, Lt. Colonel Taylor

returned to Duke as Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Assistant Professor of Bacteriology, and

Assistant Dean of the School of Medicine 1946-1947, and Associate Professor of Pediatrics,

Associate Professor and Associate Dean there 1947-1949. He was licensed to practice medicine

in the State of North Carolina in 1946, and certified by the American Board of Pediatrics in

1949.

1949-1951 he returned to Japan as Deputy Medical Director for Research with the ABCC and as

a consultant for the Armed Forces Epidemiological Board in Korea. He served as Director of the

ABCC 1952-1954.

Dr. Taylor’s forty-one-year association with MDAH in Houston, Texas, began in 1954. In 1955,

he obtained his license to practice medicine in the State of Texas. He became MDAH’s first

chief of the Section of Pediatrics, and he organized and headed the UT Postgraduate School of

Medicine in Houston, which became the UT Health Science Center’s Division of Continuing

Education. He officially retired in 1975, but his affiliation with MDAH and the Division of

Continuing Education continued. In 1977, he was named Emeritus Director of Continuing

Education at the UT Health Science Center. In 1985, he was named Emeritus Professor of

Pediatrics at MDAH where his program of care that addressed the social, emotional, and medical

needs of pediatric cancer patients formed the foundation for MDAH’s current system of pediatric

therapy that integrates medical care and normal childhood development. In his tireless dedication

to fundraising for pediatric cancer research, at the age of 87 he implemented an aluminum

recycling program at MDAH that continues to generate thousands of research dollars annually.

Dr. Taylor’s ABCC experiences convinced him that selfless teamwork and collaboration were

necessary to obtain maximum benefit from medical research and education. In the 1950s, thirty-

four Japanese physicians were trained at MDAH. He was particularly proud of this achievement

and said of those doctors, "In a way, one of our hospital’s major international contributions was

the training of these people. The Japanese did much with what they learned here. Their society

was moving forward fast, and so they went right ahead with what they learned." He also

gratefully acknowledged parents’ heroic magnanimity and contributions as research partners by

granting permission to use experimental drugs that they were aware could not improve the

condition of their child., "but if you can learn something that might help somebody else, go

ahead and do it." In the late 1950s, his belief in the necessity for cooperative research led Dr.

Taylor to organize the first collaborative research group in the southwestern region of the U. S.,

the Southwest Cancer Chemotherapy Study Group, known today as the Southwest Oncology

Group, the largest cooperative group for clinical trials in the country.

Dr. Taylor authored scores of articles for medical journals, reports for the ABCC, chapters for

medical texts, and thoughtful editorials throughout his career. In 1990 he published Pioneers in

Pediatric Oncology, a collection of autobiographies of thirty-nine of the major contributors to the

remarkable progress in this discipline. In 1991 he published Remembrances & Reflections, an

autobiography edited by N. Don Macon and John P. McGovern, M.D. He received deserved

recognition for his humanitarian achievements through the years. In 1969 he received a special

award from the Leukemia Society, in 1973 a $1,000 award from the Center for Interaction, a

private Houston foundation, and a certificate of appreciation from the Regional Medical Program

of Texas and Texas Regional Medical Program, Inc. He was given honorary Emeritus

membership on the Pediatric Executive Committee of the Southwest Oncology Group in 1974

and the American School Health Association Award in 1975. In June and August 1975 tributes

were organized in his honor by the UT System and the Harris County Medical Society,

respectively. The annual Grant Taylor Lectureship was established by the UT Health Science

Center in 1981. Among other honors, he was also given Life Membership in the DeMolay

Legion of Honor and, in 1986, the Sidney Kaliski Award from the Texas Pediatric Society, a

chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Dr. Taylor died September 19, 1995. Perhaps much of his life’s work can be understood within

the context of quotes found among his papers. One, written in his own hand on a scrap of

envelope is a quote attributed to Teddy Roosevelt:

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure,

than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they

live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

The second quote by an unnamed author is typewritten on a sheet of plain paper:

THIS I BELIEVE

I believe in working, not weeping; in boosting, not knocking; and in the pleasure of my job.

Page 4: The Papers of H. Grant Taylor, M.D. Manuscript Collection ...€¦ · These papers document his career beginning with some of his medical school notes. The ... a cover letter might

I believe that a man gets what he goes after, that one deed done today is worth two deeds

tomorrow, and that no man is down and out until he has lost faith in himself.

I believe in today, and in the work I am doing, in tomorrow and the work I hope to do, and in the

sure reward which the future holds.

I believe in courtesy, in kindness, in good cheer, in friendship and love.

Dr. Taylor’s life and legacy affirm these beliefs.

III. ORGANIZATION

The correspondence, records, and other documentation in Dr. Taylor’s collection were

maintained in original order whenever possible. Folders and material within folders generally are

in chronological order. Duplicates and triplicates of documents were discarded. Photocopies

were noted and discarded of journal articles that remain readily accessible in the original journals

unless the article was inscribed by the author. When duplicates were found, two copies of journal

articles authored by Dr. Taylor were retained and additional copies discarded along with

duplicates of other reports and reprints already in the collection. When a report was authored by

Dr. Taylor and a number of his colleagues, Dr. Taylor’s name is listed as primary author, "et

al.," regardless of the sequence of the authors’ names on the published report or article, to

emphasize his contribution.

The few folders which contain restricted patient information are noted with a bold asterisk (*).

Archival bond was interleaved where it seemed likely that related documents and attachments to

a cover letter might become separated after the staples were removed. Tabbed report dividers

were replaced with archival bond sheets. Any information on the tabs was transferred onto these

sheets.

Where possible, documents on particularly acidic paper, such as thermofax copies, were

photocopied onto archival bond paper and the acidic copies discarded. In instances where a

report was on oversized forms and/or coded in various colored inks which could not be

duplicated satisfactorily in a photocopy, the document was placed in its own L-velope or acid-

free folder to help contain possible contaminants. Some personal correspondence handwritten in

smudgy inks, but on unique stationery was segregated in a similar manner.

Some photographs were relocated to the HRC’s photograph collection. Most were sleeved and

left with pertinent correspondence, manuscripts, drafts, or reports. Captions taped onto

photographs were removed, duplicated on archival bond, and placed in L-velopes along with the

photographs.
