Lovell has filled the role since Feb. 2013. Under her watch, the house where Sam- uel Clemens, aka author Mark Twain, lived from 1874 to 1891, has been recognized by National Geographic as one of the 10 best historical homes in the world. Mark Twain Commemorative Coins produced by the U.S. Mint were also unveiled, and Living History House Tours debuted, boosting attendance. TIME Magazine labeled the house "Downton Abbey's American cousin." "Cindy is a passionate leader who brought incredible enthusiasm to her management of the House," said Joel Freedman, president of The Mark Twain House & Museum board of trustees. "She is one of the nation's leading preservers of Twain's legacy, and during her years in Hartford raised the House's profile and brought thousands of new visitors." Lovell previously served as executive director of the Mark Twain Boyhood Home & Museum in Hannibal, Mo. "Spreading the gospel of Mark Twain is my life's work, and it has been an honor and pleasure to serve as steward of this house where he wrote his greatest works and raised his family," Lovell said in a statement. Lovell, who left at the end of last week, will remain as a consultant to the House over- seeing special projects. • • • Connecticut Humanities received a $36,000 grant from the Hartford Foun- dation for Public Giving. Connecticut Humanities will use the funding to provide small, competitive grants to heritage orga- nizations within the foundation's Greater Hartford service area. • • • The Avon Connecticut Chapter of UNICO National recently donated $1,000 to Opera- tion Fuel to provide emergency energy assis- tance to Farmington Valley residents. With the donation, Operation Fuel will be able to help at least two households in Farmington Valley pay their utility bills with a grant of up to $500 each. • • • The Ryan T. Lee Foundation has received a $10,000 grant from the AT&T Foundation to support its memorial scholarship fund.
