Mason Andrews
Mason Cooke Andrews (April 19, 1919, in Norfolk, Virginia – October 13, 2006, in Norfolk, Virginia)〔(Find A Grave Listing for Mason Cooke Andrews )〕 was a Virginia politician and physician, known for delivering America's first in vitro baby. A president of the American Gynecological and Obstetrical Society, Andrews also served on the Norfolk City Council for 26 years and was mayor from 1992-1994.〔("Timeline: Mason Andrews' remarkable career", ''The Virginian-Pilot'', October 14, 2006 )〕
==America's first "test tube baby"==
Andrews had attended the birth of about 5,000 babies in Norfolk before delivering Elizabeth Carr by Caesarian section on December 28, 1981, at the Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS), which he had played a leading role in creating just a few years earlier.〔(Sullivan, Patricia, "Mason Andrews; In Vitro Pioneer Physician", ''The Washington Post''. October 15, 2006, page C8 )〕
Writing at the time of Andrews' death, Patricia Sullivan of ''The Washington Post'' observed that "()he birth of the first U.S. 'test-tube baby' gave hope to hundreds of thousands of U.S. women who were unable to become pregnant. Carr was the first of about 330,000 babies who have since been born through in vitro fertilization in the United States, according to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine."
