Her delightful smile, her beauty, her knowledge were extraordinary and memorable. She was admirable in so many ways, not the least of which was "the way she sacrificed so much of her own time and talent to further (husband's ) work, both while he was alive, and after his death: she was an absolute model of devotion. But of course her greatest quality was her own personality, her probity and honesty, and her capacity for loyal friendship." Jennifer Montagu, Chair, Gombrich Archive, Warburg Institute. Her joy in learning is epitomized in the story told by her colleague, Paul Olson, who fondly remembers her driving him to work with a Greek dictionary on the steering wheel. Paul Olson, Professor Emeritus Department of English, University of Nebraska. She and her work are discussed in the comic-philosophical novel Harmony Junction by Goddard Graves (2009, privately published). ==Biography== Born August 23, 1920, Vienna, Austria.
