Sherman Clarke replied to the topic Early ARLIS/NA Member Joyce Pellerano Ludmer Passes in the discussion
ARLIS/NA Retirement SIG on ARLISNA Commons 3 years, 4 months agoJoyce was the ARLIS/NA Chair during part of my term as Treasurer and was instrumental as we moved on to the Pam Parry as Executive Secretary phase. There were long long board meetings at the New Orleans conference. That was quite a while ago but some of the mind pictures are still pretty clear.
