Bio
Mary is a rehabilitation nurse, educator, and consultant who survived cancer which resulted in a hip disarticulation amputation in her teens. After completing her masters degree in nursing, she worked in several amputee clinics in Chicago and founded Families & Amputees In Motion. Mary’s desire to improve information for people with limb loss lead to forming the Amputee Coalition of America (1989), and the National Limb Loss Information Center (1997). More recently she is focusing her efforts on developing information and resources for the global orthotics & prosthetics community.
