[Sighfis-l] Irene Farkas-Conn passes

[Michael Buckland]

Irene Farkas-Conn was a strong supporter of the move to add history to 
what was then SIG FIS. At the Annual Meeting in 1991, in what may have 
been the first SIG FIS session to include history, Irene spoke of Watson 
Davis and Herbert Goldberg talked about his father Emanuel Goldberg to a 
packed conference room.
