The linguist Stephen Wurm participated in a PIAC Meeting only once, in 1962 at the occasion of the 5th Annual Meeting 1962, held at Indiana University in Bloomington. He was accompanied by his wife, Helene Gröger-Wurm, who was not only a scholar in her own riight but also a gifted photographer. She accompanied her husband on many travels, creating a visual record of decades of the couple’s activities. The Australian National University Archives (ANUA) hold her estate, among which the following photographs show impressions of the 5th Annual Meeting.
