Ida Shaw Martin

She was an intriguing figure and I am in the middle of a post about her that I hope to be finished with before Tri Delta's Founders' Day. I suspect I put in too much about Ida Shaw Martin in the ASA post, but she truly played a very large role in its early years.

It has been said that she "expanded her fraternity outreach beyond Tri Delta and began a thirty-year engagement as a professional Greek consultant."

She founded Pi Lambda Sigma (it became part of Theta Phi Alpha), Theta Upsilon, Lambda Omega and Pi Delta Theta.

I do not know if she was an initiated member of ASA, but I suspect she was and I wouldn't doubt her influence in its inner workings. She had the knowledge and the presence and she absolutely loved those things.
