A Personal Note

A message of appreciation for the person behind the archive—and a reminder that privacy has always mattered.

“Kate Ritter has remained steadfastly respectful of my need for personal privacy. In addition to the Lexicon, Kate has created and maintained the most amazing website on my behalf, RDAnderson.com. Her meticulous chronicling of my career and life activities looms as one of the greatest labors of love imaginable.”
— Richard Dean Anderson
