Historical Note

Rocco C. Siciliano (1922-2018), was an attorney who served in four presidentially appointed positions and as a corporation chief officer of two New York Stock Exchange companies. Marion Stiebel Siciliano (1924-2011) was a painter and philanthropist. Rocco and Marion married in 1947. In 1997, the Sicilianos endowed the Rocco C. and Marion S.
