==Life==
After encountering the early kindergarten movement in Chicago in the 1870s, Harrison sought training in St. Louis and New York. She then taught kindergarten in Iowa and Chicago. In 1886, she founded a training school for kindergarten teachers in Chicago. She is said to have been intrigued by the ideas used by a German woman working there and decided to find out more. She tracked these ideas back to the Pestalozzi-Fröbel-Haus in Berlin and in 1889 she travelled there to find out more. On her return she renamed her institution the ''Chicago Kindergarten Training College''. This became an innovative college of education.〔(''National-Louis University,'' The Electronic Encyclopedia of Chicago © 2005 Chicago Historical Society )〕 She was president of the college until her retirement in 1920. It is now part of National Louis University.
