Winter Work: Addressing the Archives 

Curator Henry Ortmeyer and a diligent team including Lynn Cherry, Ben Gantman-Coleman and volunteers David Lauer and Alicia Hamilton have begun the arduous task of organizing and scanning papers and photographs to preserve significant records of the work of Mary Henry. We are grateful for the generosity and guidance of Jessica Lydon, Brooke Dolan Archivist at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, who met with project members. Stay tuned for upcoming programming featuring archival materials.
