Harriet Griggs Guild (1899–1992) was an American physician. Born in Windham, Connecticut, she graduated from Vassar College in 1920 and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in 1925, where she was second in her class. Upon graduation, being a woman in a "man's" profession of the time, she was unable to find a suitable position and so Johns Hopkins hired her. During her career, she specialized in pediatric kidney research and treatment.[1]
By 1928, she was the director of the Harriet Lane Dispensary and a Johns Hopkins University instructor in pediatrics. She started the Pediatric Diabetic Clinic in 1930 and administered the program until 1946. In 1955 she founded the National Kidney Foundation of Maryland. Guild died in May 1992 at the age of 92.
