Several mornings during archive sojourns over the past few   years, whoever was around in the morning gathered in the ICA kitchen for   animated conversation, and often, story telling by Marge. 
  
The Print Shop Story

  
One summer, JWM assigned Marge to work in the print shop   during the summer program, knowing fully well she had no experience in print   shop running. He must also have known she would take on the task with good   spirits and creativity. Her one request was for two men who did not have   family responsibilities and who would not go to the bathroom without asking   permission.  By this time Marge was fully aware of time demands of   working on any project during the summer program. So... knowing her hours   would be long, Marge went to Sears and bought two blue dresses. She would wear   one of the blue dresses, shower in it, so both Marge and the dress would be   clean. She would sleep a few hours, put on the second blue dress and head to   the print shop for another day - and repeat the process during the whole   summer program. She did not go into the condition of the dresses following her   stint in the print shop.  


  
This just one of the many tales the archives worker bees   heard. Each is a unique delight delivered by possibly the most amazing story   teller in the EI/ICA. Working with Marge is a good reason for anyone to come   for a couple of weeks working in the ICA Archives.
