In Memoriam
The staff and board of the Museum of American Finance mourn the loss of the Museum ’ s accountant , Tony Critelli , who passed away on July 31 . Tony joined the Museum initially as a consultant in 2010 after an accomplished career at several firms including Herzog Heine Geduld , Inc . We quickly realized he was invaluable . He was a full-time employee until his retirement in 2019 . Best known for his exceedingly neat workspace , his meticulous bookkeeping abilities and his quick-witted sense of humor , he will be dearly missed by all who knew him .
The Financial History editorial board also mourns the loss of author and professor Anne Fleming , whose article , City of Debtors : A Century of Fringe Finance , appeared in the Summer 2019 issue of Financial History magazine . Anne was a Professor of Law at Georgetown University and the author of numerous articles on legal history and poverty law , as well as the awardwinning book , City of Debtors . She passed away unexpectedly on August 25 .
