Headline in the San Antonio Express News Metro Section:
Dora Guerra, who has translated centuries-old Spanish documents
for the Alamo's library, receives Historical Association award -
and we were there!
Michael congratulates Dora on her award
at the Roast, which was not for the faint of
heart
Dr. Stephen L. Hardin was the Roaster -
and a fine job he did, as you can see in the next picture
. . .
Dora couldn't stand the heat, so she got out of the
kitchen - how did she know that the napkin would match
her dress?
Her acceptance speech was gracious and
funny, just like the Lady Herself.
Congratulations from Lyn as well as many
many other friends and colleagues - she is indeed a
treasure.
As former head of rare books and special
collections at the University of Texas in San Antonio,
Dora was the curator of the diaries of Jose Enrique de la
Pena, a lieutenant colonel who served under Mexican
General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. She is back at the
Alamo now as head
of reference for its library.
