Marjorie Rachlin

A retired union activist, Marge worked for many years as a labor education and training expert for a number of unions and ended her career after 17 years at the AFL-CIO George Meany Center as a training expert. Her retirement in 1987 only meant that her energy and passion would be redirected. Marge moved to DC in 1954 “after a wonderful year in London” on a Fulbright scholarship and into her current home on Brandywine in 1968 with her husband Jack. As a long-time resident of Upper Northwest, Born in Cleveland, Marge says her mother introduced her and her sisters to their local library with weekly visits.
