Nancy Jo Felipe Russo (born 1943) is a psychologist known for her research on violence against women and the effects of unintended pregnancy and abortion on women's psychological well being. Russo was Regents Professor of Psychology and Director of Woman's Studies at Arizona State University.[1]
Russo received American Psychological Association (APA) Distinguished Contributions to the Public Interest Award in 1995.[2] This award was given to her "contributions to research and theory in women's mental health that have led to increased understanding of the complexities and importance of the roles of gender and ethnicity in the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of mental disorders.” [3] She was honored with the Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman award in 2012, given in recognition of individuals who inspired their students to make significant contributions to society.[4] She was inducted into the Oroville Union High School District Hall of Fame in 2019.[1]
Biography
Nancy Jo Felipe grew up in rural California and graduated from Oroville High School in Butte County, California in 1961.[5] She earned her Associate degree at Yuba College, and her Bachelor's degree at University of California, Davis.[1] She married Thomas Anthony Russo, son of New York State Assemblyman Lucio F. Russo, in 1966.[6]
Russo attended graduate school at Cornell University in 1970 where she obtained her Ph.D in social and development psychology. [7]
As an Assistant Professor at Richmond College of the City University of New York, Russo focused on public policy issues and women's rights.[5] Russo recalled a memo from a male faculty member that asked "What did women ever contribute to psychology anyway?" to which Russo responded "I don't know, but I'm sure they did something!"[7] In response to this, Russo began researching women's many overlooked contributions to psychology.[8]
Russo worked with her father-in-law to address inequality in mortgage laws that prohibited women from securing mortgages without a male co-signer, even if they were financially well qualified. Russo's work was instrumental in leading New York to pass the first state law that prohibited sex discrimination in mortgage banking.[5] Russo moved to Washington D.C in 1973 and was involved in creating the first Women's National Bank, which opened in 1978.[1] From 1978 to 1984, Russo served as Staff Liaison to the APA Committee on Women in Psychology.[9]
In 1985 Russo joined the faculty of the psychology department at Arizona State University where she remained until her retirement in 2010.
