545 |a Joanne Henderson Pratt was born in 1927 to Algo Henderson (1897-1988) and Anne Cristy Henderson (1897-1962) in Springfield, Ohio. Pratt attended Oberlin College (B.A., 1948) and Radcliffe College (A.M., 1950), majoring in chemistry. Her first job, after graduating from Radcliffe, was conducting research at the Yamins Laboratory in Beth Israel Hospital. In 1953 Pratt became a physical chemist at Arthur D. Little, the global management consulting firm, in Boston, Massachusetts. She married architect James Pratt in 1955, and they subsequently moved to Dallas, Texas. In 1971 Pratt, along with James Pratt, Sarah Barnett Moore, and William T. Moore, founded the Allied Professionals Educational Consulting Services (APECS), a not-for-profit interdisciplinary research and consulting group, which specialized in custom-designed workshops. In 1980 Pratt founded Joanne H. Pratt Associates, a company that conducted research and helped public and private organizations implement telework. Major projects of the company included the first survey of teleworkers using micro-computers at home
