Well grounded and pragmatic, Orr tends to develop specialized skills and technical expertise in a practical field.

She is inclined to analyze, measure, and dissect everything and to miss nuances and subtle shades of feeling and meaning in the process.

Marjorie Orr tends to be very good at what she does and critical of others' work if it does not meet her high standards.
