Betty Bishop is the granddaughter of William Warner Bishop (AB 1892, MA 1893), who was university librarian at the Graduate Library in 1915 and helped create the Library Science Program (currently the School of Information) in 1926. Her love for the University of Michigan runs deep, with a three-generation history that she considers family. Her support of many programs and projects, including the U-M Library, is generous and vast. They represent her appreciation of the education and experiences she's had at the university.

Are you feeling stressed? Needing to take a breather from school or campus? Well, I sure did! And I accomplished this by getting an Ann Arbor District Library card and attending a knitting class at the downtown location.

Take a look behind the scenes at the Michigan Theater and stroll down memory lane (and way beyond for most of us) to the 1920s and the early days of this wonderful community treasure and then move up through time to the theater's current role in the Ann Arbor arts scene.
