Editor's note--The year 1989 marks the 20th year of progress for the American Nephrology Nurses' Association (ANNA). In this special anniversary issue, Journal staff and advisors have taken time to reflect back on the historical events and leaders who helped form the association. This article examines ANNA's history year by year, from the struggles and visions of a small group of nephrology nurses who founded the organization in Atlantic City, New Jersey in April 1969 to the association's position today as a leader in professional nursing and as a promoter of quality care to nephrology patients.
