E.E. CLAIN-STEFANELLI DIES   

  ANS Executive Director Ute Wartenburg reported that   
  Elvira Eliza Clain-Stefanelli died Oct. 1, 2001 of cardiac   
  arrest.   Mrs. Stefanelli retired in 2000 as the Senior   
  Curator of the National Numismatic Collection in the   
  Numismatics Division of the National Museum of   
  American History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington,   
  DC.    

  She was at the Smithsonian for forty years, and was   
  responsible with her husband Vladimir for organizing and   
  building up the National Numismatic Collection.  She   
  survived a Nazi concentration camp in WWII Europe,   
  moved to Rome, and learned numismatics there.  In New   
  York she and her husband worked for Stack's and started   
  the Coin Galleries division there.    

  Her most recent publication was "Life In Republican Rome   
  On its Coinage", a lavishly illustrated discussion of the   
  themes which appear on the coinage of the Roman Republic,   
  published in 1999.  Her major contribution to the science of   
  numismatic literature was her classic "Numismatic Bibliography",   
  published  in 1985.
