Historical Background	Martin Byrne, R.S.H.M. was Professor of Finance at Marymount College, Loyola University, and Loyola Marymount University from 1947 to 1997. While teaching at Marymount College from 1947 to 1968 she also served terms as the College's registrar and treasurer and often volunteered as the cafeteria cashier in order to spend more time with her students. In 1959, she became the first woman to earn her Ph.D. in finance from UCLA. After her initial religious formation as a Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary, Sister Byrne was missioned to Marymount College where she quickly became a favorite teacher among the students. When Loyola University and Marymount began their affiliation in 1968, she was one of only a handful of Marymount faculty members given a Loyola faculty appointment prior the 1973 merger, joining Loyola's College of Business Administration. Following the merger, she remained a member of LMU's faculty until her death in 1997.
