Message from the Executive Director: Remembering SMPTE in Your Planning
Barbara H. Lange
On a very regular workday in July, I received a letter through e-mail that, in and of itself, would seem unusual in this day of constant digital messaging. What made the letter particularly gratifying was that it included a rather large financial gift. Norman B. Biggart recently passed away at the age of 97. He named SMPTE in his will, with a gift of more than $105,000! The only request was to use the funds for SMPTE’s charitable work geared toward students and young engineers.
