The conference committee

There'll be more photos forthcoming on the HNS website later, but here we are - the HNS conference board of directors, hanging out in the Desmond hotel courtyard just before the Friday night banquet. From left to right: Carol Anne Germain (hotel liaison), Claire Morris (publicity coordinator) standing behind Jane Kessler (bookseller liaison), Trudi Jacobson (program chair), me (treasurer), Nancy Castaldo (secretary), Jerry Burke (local coordinator), Val Perry (volunteer coordinator), Alana White (editor/agent liaison).
