Lucille M. McCulley was born on December 23, 1925 in Riverview, Nebraska, the first child of Robert J. and Ruby F. (Koenig) McCulley. Her mother was her first teacher at a one-room schoolhouse. Lucille attended St. Mary's Academy in O'Neill, Nebraska and graduated from Rock County High School in Bassett, Nebraska in 1943. After graduating from Duchesne College in Omaha, Lucille taught school near Moral, Wyoming.
Lucille completed a Fulbright scholarship at the University of Rennes, France studying literature and economics. In 1951 she moved to Paris where she received a diploma at Sciences Po. She traveled Europe in the summer of 1952 and hitchhiked to Salzburg, Austria where she and a friend had jobs with the US Army Intelligence. That fall, she returned to the US.
Lucille began her career at Julie Research Laboratories in New York City where she eventually became employed by the New York City Human Resource Department as a purchasing agent. After working briefly for Goldman Sachs, Lucille became employed by the New York Transit Authority refurbishing the NYC subway until her retirement in 1996.
Lucille spent her retirement between her home in New York City where she loved theatre, museums, movies, reading, traveling and entertaining friends and Lake Tahoe where she loved spending time with friends, cross country skiing and relaxing. Lucille was truly an amazing person.
