The secrets of UChicago’s Special Collections

Multiple angles of an ornately decorated ostrich egg honoring the presidency of Hanna Holborn Gray. It was the creation of Hyde Park community activist Rachel Marshall Goetz, LAB’21, PhB’25, MBA’27. The Fabergé-like egg is part of Gray’s papers, but Special Collections also houses Goetz’s papers, which include clippings, correspondence and photos related to her father, Leon C. Marshall, the fourth dean of the Graduate School of Business (now Chicago Booth).
