Perry,

The following link is to a biographic piece from yesterday's Baltimore
Sun about the late Rev. Dr. Anna Pauline "Pauli" Murray (1910--1985),
the first black woman ordained in the Episcopal Church. Hers was a
most fascinating life and I am embarrassed that I had never heard of
her.

Her accomplishments read like narration from a myth and--to think--she
dwelled among us.
