July 1 marked the retirement (after 28.5 years) of professor and Music, Dance, and Theatre librarian, Sarah B. Dorsey.
Sarah started in the basement of the Brown Building and then five years later moved to the “new” music building in 1999. She oversaw the renovation and naming of the Harold Schiffman Music Library in October of 2012 – color accents and comfy chairs!
Sarah will soon submit the first draft of her biography of composer, pianist, and pedagogue Louise Talma to the University of Illinois Press – “I am NOT a Woman Composer!” The Life and Music of Louise Talma. Sustainability supporter and advocate, Sarah wants to remind everyone that “we are all on this spaceship together” and “don’t forget to have fun!”
