Loretta was our scientific typist (when selectric typewriters
were the top office technology!) when she joined the Nuclear Theory Group in 1974
(later renamed Theoretical Quarks, Hadrons and Nuclei (TQHN) Group).
Now she manages all the details of our main office, and with over 30 years with us,
she's become a "one-stop" source of varied information. Being the only staff
support, she's made our group's website her "assistant" and answers to many, various
questions that she's addressed over the years can now also be easily found there.
