I am grateful to many people who have contributed to my work on this projectsharing intellectual and practical assistance and support and personal and emotional connections. First, this study began as my dissertation and could not have gotten off the ground without the guidance and direction of my advisor, Verta Taylor, to whom I am forever grateful for sharing years of advice, insight, and support. I am also very thankful to J. Craig Jenkins and Townsand Price-Spratlen for critical dialogue, helpful feedback, and encouragement. For their invaluable comments on one or more of the early chapters I thank Marieke van Willigen, Jo Reger, David S. Meyer, Mara Lieberman, Melinda Goldner, and Naomi Cassirer.

I also thank those who offered me research assistance, support, and commentsLori Boldman, Monica Carroll, Patricia Craig, Brenda Direen, Kris Elliott, Michelle Fondeil, Jim Johnson, Marcy Newman, Cynthia Pelak, Nikki Raeburn, Jennifer Resler, J. Arwen Smith, and Lisa Weems. I also thank Kathleen Blee and Patricia Yancey Martin for their critical methodological advice.

A special thanks to all of those Cincinnatians and former Cincinnatians who allowed me to interview them and those who provided me with invaluable access to organizational documents, audio and visual media. Without them this study would not be.

As a dissertation research project, I received support from a grant from the Graduate School at the Ohio State Universitythe Graduate Student Alumni Research Awardand from two dissertation grants from the Department of Sociology at the Ohio State University.

In the transformation of the manuscript to a book I am eternally grateful to Nancy Naples for truly generous mentoring, clear guidance, amazing insight, and wonderful friendship. My heartfelt thanks to Daniel J. Myers who read the entire manuscript on short notice and offered a very valuable critique, thoughtful insight, and practical suggestions. I am also deeply grateful to Stephanie Gilmore for jumping in at the tail end to so carefully read several chapters and offer thorough and thoughtful feedback and invaluable insight, skillful editorial assistance, and words of encouragement. Thanks also to Betsy Kaminski for offering me useful comments and suggestions. I am grateful to Margaret Letterman for her close (and quick) read of the entire manuscript with her keen eye and outside perspective. I also thank Mara Lieberman for reading various pieces and parts of the book-in-progress, acting as a sounding-board, and providing valuable and practical feedback. I thank Kimberly Guinta at Routledge for all of her work getting this book to print.

I thank Kristine Olsen, my unofficial graduate research assistant, who helped a great deal with the index and engaged with me in much needed dialogue about the project. Thank you to my undergraduate research assistant, Danielle Urbano, for her workespecially in searching for articles and for being a relentless pursuer of answers to frustrating software questions.

The following individuals have helped to make this a better final product by their sharing with me through their conversations, words of encouragement, and connections and for that I am deeply grateful to Mary Bernstein, Aimee Colbert, John Kilburn, Jan Marie Popovich, Jo Reger, Theresa Severance, and J. Arwen Smith. I also thank my colleagues in the Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work and my students at Eastern Connecticut State University for all of their support.

Finally, I thank all of my family who have been unwavering in their love through the course of this project especially my mom, Shirley Estner, and my dad, Hershey Dugan for believing in me and giving me much needed encouragement and support. I am also very grateful to Milton Estner, my stepfather. Thank you to Mitchell Dugan, Maggie Dugan, Liam Dugan, Finn Dugan, Josh Estner, Suzan Estner, Jessica Estner, Arthur Herskovitz, Helen Citron, David "Zade" Dugan, Christean Dugan, and the Lieberman family for love, laughter, and light. I wish to thank my grandmother, Mollie Dugan, for being an exemplary role model and seeing me through important milestones. I am forever grateful to Riki Bloom for her unconditional love and enduring friendship through this and other accomplishments and challenges in my life. Finally, I am so blessed to have Mara Lieberman, my partner in my life. Her love, laughter, and passion for life-growth and truth-sustain me through the years. Everything good and real feels possible with her. Thank you.
