Michael Adams' new job

[Brenda Lester]

The DSNA announced in its recent newsletter that Michael Adams is leaving Dictionaries to take Connie Eble's place as editor of American Speech in 2006.  I want to thank Michael for his good advice and encouragement in helping a grad student publish her first SOLO piece ("Speaking of Mary Gray Porter: an Interview with a Former Editor of 'Among the New Words'") in Dictionaries back in 2001.

Thanks for a job well done, Connie!
Congratulations, Michael!
