The Transcultural Nursing Society (TCNS) recognizes transcultural nursing (TCN) scholars for creative leadership and advancing education, practice, research, and administration. The purpose of this study was to discover the historical context of scholars' professional growth and development and their contributions to and future vision for transcultural nursing. Leininger's Ethnonursing Research Method was used to develop an ethnohistorical qualitative approach that included a semistructured, open-ended interview guide and data analysis plan. Data were analyzed using NVivo software and Leininger's Phases of Ethnonursing Data Analysis Enabler for Qualitative Data. Analysis resulted in the discovery of five themes and 15 patterns related to the sources of scholars' interest in TCN; professional development strategies; contributions to TCN theory development, education, research, practice, service, and consultation; the responsibilities of being a TCN scholar; and their future vision for TCN. These findings could inspire and guide TCN scholars as they pursue the study and practice of TCN.
