Meet the 2026 Board


Diane Huebner, President

Huebner was born in California. She graduated from the University of Redlands, a liberal arts school, with a B.S. in Mathematics then worked on a Master’s degree in Mathematics at the University of Florida, where she discovered, “I really didn’t enjoy math.” Next, she worked on a Master’s degree in Nuclear Engineering at Louisiana State University, where she discovered, “There was no plan for the disposal of nuclear waste, so why were we building reactors?” Subsequently, she lived in New Jersey for 35 years and worked as a Cobol programmer for an insurance company for 32 of those years. Thirty-two years is approximately how long I have been working on my genealogy. “I have seen lots of changes over the years in how the research is done,” Huener says. “Using the computer is a lot more fun than using microfiche!”
