Library Supporter Dr. Patrick Hanratty '77 Reminisces About First Folio Donation

ImageOn Wednesday, September 30, 2015 as part of the UCI Stories project, Dr. Krystal Tribbett had the opportunity to interview Dr. Patrick Hanratty, '77 and Friend of the UCI Libraries. Dr. Hanratty shared stories of his early work and contributions to computer programming, and his time as a UCI graduate student in Information and Computer Science.

The highlight of the interview was Dr. Hanratty's reflections on sharing his love of books with the world. He enjoyed reuniting with Shakespeare's 1623 First Folio and the first edition of Edwin Abbott's Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions both which he had previously donated to the Libraries. We are forever grateful to Dr. Hanratty for these invaluable gifts to the UCI community.
