| Introduction |
|---|
Not long ago, the Society of Pediatric Psychology (SPP) celebrated its 30th anniversary. One clear implication of this event was that those of us who participated in its founding in 1968 are now 30 years older. There is a lot of gray hair in this group. In fact, it contains several people like myself whose scalp has almost no hair at all. Anne E. Kazak, the Editor of the Journal of Pediatric Psychology, recently asked me to write a historical article about the field. In speaking with her about this, I found that she wanted an article based on personal memories rather than on any archival research, in other words, the kind of thing one asks a senior colleague to do. I agreed to try to write such an article, but my focus here will be not so much on the early days but more on what it is
