It is with great sad that we need to inform the museum community that Linda Ann Hollenberg passed away on 21 April 2018 in Silver Spring, Maryland. Linda was born on 6 May 1953 in the District of Columbia. She joined the Smithsonian’s Department of Botany in
1979 as a Museum Specialist. Linda had been responsible for a number of critical core functions within the Department, including overseeing all Botany collections at the Museum Support Center, collections space in the herbarium, administrative, budget preparation,
fund allocation, collections conservation issues, and special projects. She retired from the Smithsonian in 2014. <o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Linda was an integral part of the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections (SPNHC) council since 2005, first as a co-chair on the Education and Training Committee before becoming chair of the Archive Committee. She served as Archivist for
SPNHC for eleven years. She was also active in several local native plant societies and volunteered as an usher for lectures sponsored by the Smithsonian Resident Associates and for performances at Arena Stage and Shakespeare Theatre.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>
