The project team also would like to thank Trudy Laframboise and Darla Moore of Rollins Archives, Barbara White of Winter Park Library, and Fairolyn Livingston of the Winter Park Heritage Center for their research aid, as well as Paul Gindlesperger of Olin Library for his technical support. Their contributions are gratefully acknowledged. In addition, helpful editorial assistance was provided by several student workers at the Olin Library including Cristina Hernandez (’24), Nandni Verma (’21), Sam Cavallo (’24), and Emma McAdoo (’26). Finally, the strong administrative support provided by Olin Library Dean Derek Malone and the Library Digital Strategies and Scholarly Communication team, including Rachel Walton and Cassidy Watson, have allowed this publication to become a reality.
