Charter Members

Charter Members of the Society are those members who joined the Society in its first year. March 4, 1962, was established as the deadline for Charter Membership, being one year from the founding of the Society. Thus, upon the first meeting of the Society in Atlantic City on April 12, 1962, the Society consisted of 185 Charter Members.

In 2011 for the Society’s 50th anniversary, staff member Marcia Lawson interviewed two of the Society›s Charter Members to capture their memories of significant moments in SOT history.
