Zusammenfassung:An obituary for scholar, Sylvia Freeman Wallace McGrath, who died on September 2006 is presented. McGrath began a life of teaching during her own college years. On her summer breaks she worked as a camp counselor for the American Youth Foundation, a job that included teaching a short course on American history and ideals.
