Nancy Bartlit is a historian, author, and lecturer sponsored by the NM Humanities Council and the Historical Society of New Mexico.  She retells the stories of U.S. Army survivors of the Bataan Death March, Navajo Code Talkers Marine privates, internees of the Santa Fe Internment Camp for males of Japanese descent, and Manhattan Project civilian and military personnel found in her co-authored book Silent Voices of World War II: When Sons of the Land of Enchantment Met Sons of the Land of the Rising Sun.  For this talk, she will explain life in the Santa Fe Internment Camp during World War II (and the similarity with the current US/Mexico border detention centers situation).

In 2017 she co-founded Pajarito Press LLC and in 2018 plans to publish a revision of that book.  The original publication has been approved by the NM Board of Education as a supplemental text for New Mexico schools and is enjoyed by persons interested in learning more about New Mexico’s role in the war.

As a 56-year active resident of Los Alamos, Bartlit chaired the county’s elected body, lobbied for ten years for the Manhattan Project National Historical Park, presided over the Los Alamos Historical Society, and shared the Society’s highest award for preserving Los Alamos history.  She and her husband John are Los Alamos Living Treasures.

Santa Fe Chapter of the Texas Ex Students Association Dinner
Welcoming the Texas 4000 Cyclists to Santa Fe
Sunday, June 10 ~ 5:30 p.m.
Clubhouse at the Club at Las Campanas

The Santa Fe Chapter of the Texas Ex-Students Association is again hosting a dinner welcoming the Texas4000 cyclists to Santa Fe as they overnight here on their way to Alaska. The Texas4000 organization sponsors a ride, by cyclists who are University of Texas students, from Austin to Anchorage, Alaska (the 4000 is the number of miles from Austin to Anchorage) to raise money for cancer research (see their website, Texas4000.org, for more information), the cyclists will be spending the night in Santa Fe June 9 and 10 as part of this ride (riding in from Santa Rosa June 9). The Texas Exes welcome everyone to this event, the riders and their stories are pretty amazing and would be of interest even if you have no connection to the University of Texas.

The event begins at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday June 10 with cocktails and conversation (cash bar-Club members may charge their Club accounts), followed by dinner at about 6:30 p.m., all of  which will include meeting the cyclists. For our Las Campanas cyclists, there may also be opportunities to ride with the Texas4000 cyclists as they come into Santa Fe from Santa Rosa on Saturday or as they depart on Monday, plans not final on that yet. For more information on the dinner (or riding opportunities) contact Las Campanas member (and Santa Fe Texas Exes Vice President) Sam Haas at samhaas@msn.com.
