Abstract
Accountancy owes much to those dedicated persons who, during the formative years, perceived it to be a dynamic profession rather than a technical skill. This paper recalls one such person, Warren W. Nissley. Born in Middletown, Pennsylvania in 1893, his career in accounting spanned approximately thirty years. At his untimely death on January 17, 1950, Nissley was within reach of the pinnacle of success at Arthur Young 8c Company. His influence on accountancy had been considerable and had he lived, it would undoubtedly have been even greater.
