This newsletter would not be possible without the help of our contributors and editorial team. Special thanks to all who provided fresh content for this issue: Karen Leube, Ellen Yutzy Glebe, Ruth Boggs, Matt Baird, Kathi Stock, Claire Haymes, Robin Limmeroth, and Elizabeth Tucker. A very big thank you to Marion Rhodes as she is stepping away from her role as co-editor; this issue benefitted greatly from her input and guidance.

Kudos to Daniela Radivo-Harder for her creativity and hard work on designing this newsletter. Thank you also to our copy editors Ivonne Reichard-Novak, Annett Kuester,  Richard N. Block, and Melissa Kostelecky; and to our proofreaders Ute Kegel, Kim Scherer, Jill R. Sommer, and Megan Falk; Rosalie Henke, our book review coordinator; and Stella Waltemade, who continues to keep us updated on T&I events around the globe!

Thank you all!
