Towle published extensively including sixty-nine articles and three books. ...Towle provided consultation to several government agencies including the Veterans Administration and the National Institute of Mental Health and was a member of the Social Work Advisory Committee to the Committee on Advancement of Psychiatry of the American Psychiatric Association.
