J U N E 2 0 1 1 / F O R E I G N S E R V I C E J O U R N A L 65 terhood. Shortly before her death, she was honored as a 75-year member. Friends and family remember Mrs. Caldwell’s positive outlook on life, her supportive attitude toward all with whom she associated and her gracious skills as a hostess. She also made a con- certed effort throughout her life to keep in touch with extended family and friends; her address list contained well over 600 entries. And as family mem- bers recall, she could recite in detail her association with each and every person. Martha Caldwell was predeceased by a son, Robert Wallace Caldwell Jr., who died in 1945, and by her husband, Robert, who died in 1994. She is survived by three children, the Reverend Wallace Caldwell of Kirksville, Mo., the Reverend George Caldwell (and his wife, Kathleen Goodness Caldwell) of Alexandria, Va., and Margaret Catherin Caldwell-Ott (and her husband, Derek) of New York, N.Y.; two grandchildren, Tara Nayak-Palmore (and her husband Joe Palmore) of Washington, D.C., and Sushila Nauyak-Millas (and her hus- band, Orestis Millas) of London, Eng- land; and three great-grandsons, Simon, Teddy and Charlie Palmore of Washington, D.C. Glen Fisher , 88, a retired Foreign Service officer, died April 9 at his home in Monterey, Calif., after a debilitating stroke following heart surgery. Mr. Fisher was born in Nappanee, Ind., in 1922. He received a Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from the Univer- sity of North Carolina in 1953. He had an unusual career, combining diplo- macy and scholarship, that stretched from 1953 to 1999. From 1953 to 1965, he served as a staff sociologist and Latin America area specialist at the Foreign Service Insti- tute. From 1971 to 1974, he served as dean of the Center for Area Studies at FSI. His overseas Foreign Service as- signments included Venezuela, the Philippines (both at Cebu andManila) and Bolivia. From 1965 to 1967 he was chief of the Office of Ecuadorean Affairs for the Department of State. Mr. Fisher was a major figure in the emerging field of cross-cultural and global communications. An assign- ment as the first holder of the Edward R. Murrow Chair of Public Diplomacy gave him the opportunity to produce Public Diplomacy and the Behavioral Sciences , which was published in 1972. This pioneering interdisciplinary work served as a handbook introducing prac- titioners in diplomacy, business and the military to the findings of anthropolo- gists, psychologists and sociologists working with cross-cultural communi- cation and negotiation. In 1997 he published his most pop- ular book, Mindsets: The Role of Cul- ture and Perception in International Relations (Nicholas Brealey). His books were used in diverse places, and translated into Japanese and Arabic. In 1976 he received a Meritorious Honor Award from the State Department “for meritorious work in building bridges between scholarly theory in the social sciences and the realities of political, personal and cultural interactions in the foreign relations process.” After retiring from the Foreign Service, Mr. Fisher worked as an ad- junct professor of international com- munication at the Georgetown Univer- sity School of Foreign Service from 1976 to 1981. From 1982 to 1999, he served as a professor-diplomat at the Monterey Institute of International Studies in Monterey, Calif., and con- tinued to write, lecture and participate in seminars on cultural analysis, edu- cational exchange and international ne- gotiation. Mr. Fisher is survived by his wife of 66 years, Lorita of Monterey; a daugh- ter, Kathy Pampiks of Monterey; and a son, Wayne (and his wife, Joanne) of Ann Arbor, Mich. Maynard Wayne Glitman , a re- tired FSO and former ambassador, died on Dec. 14, 2010, in Shelburne, Vt. Known to his friends as “Mike,” Mr. Glitman was born in Chicago, Ill., on Dec. 8, 1933, to Reada and Ben Glit- man. He earned a bachelor’s degree with highest honors in 1955 from the University of Illinois, where he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. In 1956 he completed a master’s degree from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplo- macy at Tufts University. He began his career in the U.S. Foreign Service in 1956. For the next 38 years, he served in both the depart- ments of State and Defense in Wash- ington, D.C. He served as deputy assistant secretary for international trade policy and also as deputy assis- tant secretary of Defense for interna- tional security affairs. Among Mr. Glitman’s early postings were Nassau, Ottawa and Paris. In 1977 he became deputy chief of mis- sion at the United States Mission to NATO in Brussels. Next, he became intensely involved in arms control is- sues as the deputy chief negotiator in the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Negotiations in Geneva.
