Libros Schmibros’ core team is more than David and I. For over a year now, Catherine Fryszczyn has imposed order on chaos by wrangling herds of books, corralling large amounts of data, steering volunteers, and riding the rodeo of public events that is part of life at Libros Schmibros. She has created ways to track all our data, and work on the daunting task of grantwriting and fundraising. Somehow, through it all, she even manages to lasso the ever-multiplying shiny objects that David brings back to the shop and piles on the desk.
