With the opportunity to cultivate professional memory and expand the historiographical debate, this research aims to understand the foundation of Occupational Therapy in the city of São Paulo and, in particular, identify the ethos of professionals engaged in this process. To reduce the scale of observation and intensify the study, the espatial delimitation was necessary - the city of São Paulo – as well as temporal delimitation - 1956, year of creation of the INAR to 1969, year of regulation of the profession . It should be noted that the research deals with the foundation of the profession in a particular city and do not intend to assert that it was the birthplace of the establishment of the profession in Brazil. We adopted the oral history of life as a methodological approach because historiagraphical researche of Occupational Therapy is scarce in this country. Ended process of Immersion/ Crystallization, three categories of analysis were discussed: Political and pedagogical project; Humanistic profession founded by women; Orphanhood and professional legacy. We understand the establishment of the profession as a result of an interwoven set of interests and discourses in their own occupational therapists in the context of political weakening of Social Work and rise of Psychology in the educational institution that offering the course in São Paulo. Finally, we will present the full narratives of the five collaborators and, as research unfolding, a proposal for intervention in reality researched.
