Labbok, personal communication, June 28, 2015). Chele Marmet envisioned the allied health field of lactation consulting, complete with international educational standards, professional organizations, and a scope of practice. She was an active contributing founder of the International Lactation Consultant Association, developed hundreds of test questions for the early International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners (IBCLE), and co-founded the first academic (BA and MA) lactation education program, The Lactation Institute, to name only a few of her many innovations and contributions to the field of lactation we know today-a field that has grown exponentially globally since those early days in the 1970s when Chele began creating our profession. Her academic background in speech and hearing gave her the orientation to delve into infants' oral-motor function. Additional education and experience followed as her passion for helping breastfeeding families grew. This is the first part of her interview; the second part will follow in the next <i>JHL</i> issue. Fortunately, Chele is working on her memoir, which will detail topics we could only briefly discuss in this interview. It was my honor to interview Chele Marmet.Joan E.
