[SIGCIS-Members] Request for biographies

[Marc Weber]

It’s a wonderful book, and thank you to Severo for making it publicly accessible!
Severo also did an oral history <https://www.computerhistory.org/collections/catalog/102738018> with us, as did Dave Walden and several of the other folks being mentioned in this thread. 
Best, Marc
