About Lora D. Delwiche
When Susan Slaughter and I first started thinking about writing a book about SAS software, there really weren't many good sources for learning SAS. We wanted to change that. We thought that an introductory SAS book should make learning SAS easy and fun. So we set out to create a book that would do just that. At the time, I was working at the University of California, Davis supporting scientific software for the campus. When people would ask me if there was a good book they could use to learn SAS, I would cringe as I pointed them to my shelf full of SAS manuals. It was overwhelming for new SAS users. We were determined that our book would be small, and approachable, and cover most of what people needed to know. I'm happy to say that "The Little SAS Book" is now in its sixth edition and going strong! As the book changed over the years, so did my role at the university. I moved from software support, to being the lead SAS programmer for several epidemiological studies. I am happily retired from the university now, but I am still active in the SAS world attending conferences and updating our books.
