About the Author
The best student Dr. Edward Angle, the "father of orthodontics," ever had,
Dr. Allan G. Brodie (1897-1976) came to the University of Illinois at
Chicago College of Dentistry in 1929 to start the first graduate program in
orthodontics.
His seminars quickly became renowned for the quality of his teaching; his
writings were avidly read; and his example attracted scores to teaching and
research. His own theoretical research set his reputation as a scholar as
firmly as his use of the edgewise arch established his clinical renown.
Adding administrative excellence to that reputation, Dr. Brodie served
from 1929 to 1966 as orthodontics department chair and from 1944 to 1956 as
the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry's dean and
orthodontics chair simultaneously.
Internationally known as a clinician, teacher, administrator, and
researcher, Dr. Allan G. Brodie set the standard for orthodontic expertise
through much of the 20th century.
