Twice Drs. Stewart and Eddy were nominated for the Nobel Prize for their work on the S-E polyoma virus, but unfortunately, they never won.
Dr. Stewart won several awards during her career, including the Federal Woman’s Award presented by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965.
She retired from the NIH in 1970 and unfortunately died of cancer in 1976.
Dr. Stewart’s home was in the National Cancer Institute (NCI), so she was not assigned space in Buildings 29 or 29A.
