Dear friends,
As most of you know, the Davis Center, née the Russian Research Center,
first opened its doors 60 years ago, in January 1948. Longtime Center
Associate Mark Field was, as he attests, "present at the creation" of
the Center. He entered the Soviet Union program that same year, earning
a master's degree in 1950 and a Ph.D. in Social Relations in 1955 before
going on to become an expert on health and health care in the Soviet Union.
Mark has been a wonderful colleague and loyal friend of the Center over
these past six decades. We hope you will join us at a lunch in his honor
to celebrate this anniversary and share reminiscences of those early
days on Friday, February 1, 12:30-2:00, in CGIS South, Room 354.
Please let us know if you can come by giving your RSVP to Tricia Vio at
<vio(a)fas.harvard.edu> <mailto:vio@fas.harvard.edu> or 617-495-4037 by
Monday, January 28.
We look forward to seeing you all.
Cheers,
Lis
