Mary E. Stack was a native of
Jonesboro, Arkansas who spent much of her life serving as a dietitian in the U.S. Army.
During World War II she served in the Pacific and completed numerous other tours of duty.
Throughout her travels Stack visited antique shops and auctions collecting, among other
things, turn of the century furniture, snuff boxes, over 1500 thimbles, sewing scissors,
lace making bobbins, crochet hooks, knitting needles and hat pins. A sampling of these
objects is exhibited in the Mary E. Stack Gallery.
