Reading is one of my favorite things to do, and I hope to have a library of my own one day--not as large, but inspired by experiences like attending a Chris Collins Top Dawg event in LA, where he, a dealer consultant, has his own incredible library.

I am a historian who specializes in Chicago and Illinois history and genealogy. The Newberry Library provided me with resources that enabled me to discover major and exciting things about my own Illinois family history. One of my published books, which is a history of Springfield, Illinois, is in the Newberry Library collection. I was also a member of the Newberry Library Associates, a junior auxiliary board that helped raise money and awareness for the Newberry Library. I also was a member of the Caxton Club, a book collectors's club that is based at the Newberry Library. Thank you to the Newberry Library for all you have done to help me with my family history research. Thank you for being a grand and wonderful part of the Chicago community. I look forward to many more visits to the Newberry Library! God bless.
