During the Martin Luther King Jr commemoration Monday, U of L students portrayed several great Kentucky African Americans. Among them was Elmer Lucille Allen, the first African American female chemist hired at Brown-Forman in the 1960s. Elmer Lucille has been an integral part of Louisville Clay since its inception. Her services to the entire Louisville community are legend as she makes sure she is present where she is needed the most. Within the video is an interview with Elmer Lucille. We are honored to have her as one of our members.

By now most of you have heard about the injuries Norman sustained from the fire. There is a website with updates on his progress, etc. that all of us can log onto to leave messages. His sister, Ada, is doing a wonderful job of posting to it so we know what is going on. This cannot be easy for her. I have sent this information to everyone in the clay community, not just members of Louisville Clay. Be sure to log on and let Norman know you are thinking of him. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/normansilva
