To the Family of Audrey DAvis: My deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences. I worked for Dr. Davis as her secretary for 3 years (1978-1981) at American History. She has always supported and motivated me in all my efforts in my career at the Smithsonian. I learned alot from her. WIth apologies, as I only learned recently of her death.
