University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

The story of an immigrant at Hull House, this book reminds those of us working in policy that the effects of policies are varied and part of a rich, individual story not often told. On a personal level, it is also my family’s story. I remember when the book, written by my great-grandmother and researched and annotated by my grandmother, first came out when I was a kid. It was my first lesson on the importance of education and research, as well as a reminder to do right by those who came before us and their hopes.
