Pierre Frist Goodrich (1894-1973), A successful lawyer who, in 1960, established the Liberty Fund, for encouraging the study of his concept of an ideal society: a community composed of free and responsible persons. Goodrich s concept was based on his belief that the ideal of such a society was threatened by the use of governmental powers which thwarted liberty and corrupted both the wielder and the object of power. In an effort to enhance the mission of the Liberty Fund, he required all fund trustees to read and discuss classic texts at board meetings.

Margaret Morton Kimball (niece of Dorothy Dugan), interview, October 25, 1992. According to Rosanna Amos, She Dorothy always wanted to be the social butterfly, and even though Pierre Goodrich came from a very well known family, that was never his interest. I don t think he was ever interested in socializing at all. Being known was not important to him (interview, December 10, 1991).
Margaret Kimball, interview, October 25, 1992. According to Mrs. Kimball, Dorothy participated in the Indianapolis Women s Club (a literary group), the Junior League, the Indiana Vassar Club, and the Indianapolis Dramatics Club (a theater group). She even wrote a cookbook. Dorothy s involvement in the Indianapolis Literary Club was so well remembered that the club honored her with the dedication of a book in 1987. That was shortly after Dorothy s death (she died on February 14, 1987) and twenty years after she had resigned from the club to move to California.
