Joseph F. Gorman Collection

Joseph F. Gorman worked in mail & records for the Manhattan Engineer District, first in Syracuse, NY, then New York City, and then later as head of records administration in Oak Ridge when the District's headquarters were relocated in 1943.  His career spanned the entire history of the AEC.  Mr. Gorman retired in 1974 as Chief of Records Administration for the Atomic Energy Commission. He passed away on Dec. 5, 2002 at the age of 85.  The following collection of very important artifacts were provided to us by his daughter, Trish Gorman Higgins.  Thank you Trish for contributing to this very important piece of American history.
