Biographical Sketches (in alphabetical order) Allen Anthony Huemer (AAH) [allen@huemer.com]: Allen was born in Los Angeles and spent his early years in North Hollywood, with his parents Richard Martin and Polly, and his older brothers Richard and David. He studied anthropology and archaeology as an undergraduate. His terminal studies were in political philosophy. He has been Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of Hawaii, Chair of the Humanities and Social Sciences program at Fort Peck Community College, and has taught philosophy and American antiquities at Central Wyoming College. Until recently, he served as the Staff Development Director at the Wyoming State Training School in Lander, Wyoming. David Alexander Huemer (DAH) was born in Los Angeles, California on November 10, 1937, the second of three children of Dick and Polly Huemer. He earned his B.A. from Pomona College, where he met his future wife Barbara Arundel. He then pursued graduate studies in mathematics at Oregon State U. in Eugene. With his concentration on computer science, he soon landed a job managing a data-processing center for VISA. He ultimately rose to the Vice-Presidency of that corporation. Subsequently he headed AirPlus, a credit-card company operated by a consortium of European airlines. He died in Hoboken, NJ, in 1992 of heart disease. Mariette "Polly" Huemer (MPH) [1902-1999] was born on July 2, 1902 in Bronx, NY, to Peter Prevosto and Marie Bonenfant Prevosto. Polly attended Cornell University, graduating Phi Beta Kappa in 1929. She was associated with a graduate school of social work in New York City prior to her marriage in 1931 to animation pioneer Dick Huemer. In her own eyes, her proudest achievement was inspiring the love of learning in three sons who distinguished themselves in diverse fields. She spent her later years in mentoring young people and in service to the community as a Public Library volunteer.
