The leading authority on post-polio syndrome, Dr. Jacquelin Perry was a 1959 Times Woman of the Year.

The country was in the grip of a polio epidemic in the 1950s when orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jacquelin Perry began performing spinal surgeries in Downey that helped paralyzed survivors of the disease regain mobility.
