Mary Anne Thurber ’73 in the UW Marching Band Hall of Fame

Mary Anne Thurber ’73 was one of two women to be the first females to participate in the UW Marching Band, thus opening the door for countless young women to follow, like the ones in the accompanying photo from 1981. For her barrier-dropping participation, on Saturday, September 10, Mary Anne became one of the newest inductees to the UW Marching Band Hall of Fame.
