Shadowgraph Prints — Scholarship Fund
In 2002, the North Carolina Society of Radiologic Technologists established a scholarship to honor the memory of Jane Cox Hendrix, RN, RT(R). The scholarship supports graduate and undergraduate radiologic technology students.
Jane received her x-ray training at Duke University Medical Center and served NCSRT, Inc. as President and ASRT Counselor to North Carolina. In the late ’40s, while teaching x-ray physics at UNC-Greensboro, she experimented with x-raying flowers using a superficial therapy machine. Her Shadowgraphs of Flowers won national recognition at the 1949 ASRT meeting in San Francisco, and her technique was published in the 1953 ASRT Journal. Her work was exhibited at the State Art Gallery in Raleigh, and two prints toured internationally with the International Photography-in-Science Salon.
Jane was awarded honorary membership in NCSRT, Inc., and in 1983 delivered the Reeves–Rousseau Lecture. After marrying William P. Hendrix, she retired from professional life, leaving a legacy of beauty for all to enjoy. NCSRT, Inc. has commissioned reprints of her floral shadowgraphs to fund the scholarship.
Prints are available on-site at the NCSRT, Inc. Annual Conference and select One-Day Seminars. You may also purchase prints via the order form above. Cash donations are appreciated.
