• Known for her role in the history of the American nursing profession, Lavinia L. Dock (1858-1956) also played an important role to create international networks of nurses serving as the Secretary of the International Council of Nurses (ICN) for more than 20 years. This paper explores the articles and reports by Lavinia L. Dock in her ICN years. By focusing on Dock's writings we see the struggle of a nurse trying to define her own role as an American citizen at the turn of the nineteenth-century America. She came to feel that that goal could be reached only by putting herself outside of the United States. She stood like a "lightning rod", absorbing signals and then forming policies on multiple domestic and international problems. Subsequently, she became alienated from both nurses at home and colleagues in the ICN. Her career provides insight into the efforts of American women during profound social and international change.
