4 Gettinq to Know vou - Cecilv Cannan Selbv With Appreciation Wed. Feb. 17 at 3:00 pm via Zoom (Gene Dubow, Zoommaster) Dear Kendal Family

Thank you for all tt'le emails, notes, cards and A Renaissance Woman Who Promotes lntegrating goodies left at our front door during the seven the Arts, the Humanities, and the Sciences weeks lwas doing battle with COVID-19. I am enjoying them now, and they were of great We are pleased to welcome cornfort to Jane while she was alone. t C.-\:..N Cr.t:lt ll St I u Cecily who moved to Kendal on January 5. I am recovering well and hope to greet you while walking the halls with my aide Julius. Cecily's lifelong devotion to science began with a B.S. Joe Kratovil d 1 degree in physics from k, Radcliffe and then, at the age of 23, a Ph.D. in physical biology from tVlT. t Choosing to concentrate on lk Itr independent research at the Sloan-Kettering lnstitute and Cornell ft/edical School, she was among the first to use X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy to explore the intimate structure of cells. After the blrth of her three sons, she sought and found ways to pursue science and a more family friendly environment then available on academic tracks; heading a private girls school added management and administration to her skills. Cecily served on Fortune 500 boards and as a university trustee where she found herself a minority in science literacy as well as in gender! lnevitably, Washington called where she became CEO of a Washington, DC-based national NGO for nuclear energy, and co-chaired the National Science Foundation's first commission to nrake K-12 science, mathematics, and technology education for all a national prlority.

Cecily concluded her professional career one month ago as Professor of Science Education at NYU where her students were experienced NYC science teachers. She decided to write a book to share how her science experiments, art, and humanities experiences have rnuch in common. The processes of human inquiry are shared by ALL academic subjects and thus accessible and ready to be rnixed and matched by everyone. . . worldwide.
