By setting high standards of excellence for a diverse and caring community, Friends seeks to develop in each student the spiritual, intellectual, physical and creative strengths to make a positive contribution to the world. Recognizing that there is that of God in each person, the School strives in all its programs, policies and affairs to be an institution that exemplifies the ideals of the Religious Society of Friends.

DEAR FRIENDS, The New Year seems an appropriate time to take stock of our School, our community and all that we’ve accomplished together; and in this special edition of Collection magazine, in which we focus on our first-ever comprehensive campaign, Setting the Stage, we will do just that. The stories behind this remarkable effort, and the names you see listed in the accompanying annual report, Philanthropy at Friends, affirm the values and shared sense of purpose that we as a Quaker school enjoy. We see this cooperative spirit played out every day — in the classroom, where students and teachers learn from and with each other, and on our athletic fields and stages, where the alchemy of teamwork among players and performers produces memorable contests and scenes. It is present during our annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, when families, faculty, staff and alumni volunteer at shelters and soup kitchens throughout the City. And it is borne out in our capital, annual and planned giving programs, as our annual report of Philanthropy at Friends attests. During the 2013–14 school year, hundreds of volunteers dedicated their effort to Friends — helping out in our libraries and our classrooms, chaperoning dances and field trips, making calls at annual giving phonathons, serving on boards and committees and so much more. In addition, more than 1,890 donors made Friends School a philanthropic priority, giving over $4.6 million in annual and capital gifts — the largest amount ever raised by Friends School in a single fiscal year. Among these generous donors was beloved alumna Anne Martin ’37, who bestowed the School with its largest gift ever by naming us as a $1.8 million beneficiary of her estate. As Margaret Mead so memorably wrote, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” The stories in this edition, and the names listed in this report, constitute that “small group of thoughtful, committed citizens” of the Friends School community. And I can assure you that your gifts, of time, of talent and of treasure, are helping to change Friends School, and by extension, the wider world. If you need proof of this fact, just look at the lives our graduates and even our current students, are leading, lives of purpose and consequence all across America and all around the world. Those lives, and the changes they are bringing about in their communities, have been shaped in powerful ways by the experience of being at Friends. We thank you for sustaining this 230-year tradition of excellence in education. You are the reason that our work continues and that Friends is moving forward in such a positive direction. Best wishes,

Matthew Micciche Head of School

Auditorium … at last! For Friends’ dedicated music and theater faculty, the new Auditorium was a long time coming, but it’s well worth the wait.

5114 North Charles Street Baltimore, MD 21210 | 410.649.3200


YOU’VE READ about it in past issues of Collection, have seen the striking red logo (above) on School communications. (It even adorns the North Charles Street light poles fronting our campus.) After a three-year “quiet” phase, Friends School on November 1, 2014 announced the launch of the “community” phase of Setting the Stage, a $23 million comprehensive campaign to dramatically grow the School’s financial aid endowment and create a 21st-century performing and visual arts center within the original Forbush Building — all while ensuring a strong annual giving program for the long term. Led by trustee and perennial capital campaign co-chair Tim Hearn ’78, with support from a 62-plus member leadership team, Friends’ first-ever comprehensive campaign is the largest single fundraising effort in the School’s 230-year history. By former Headmaster W. Byron Forbush, II ’47’s calculations, when our community achieves its goal — and we will with your help — Friends will surpass the total raised in all eight of its previous capital campaigns combined.

WHAT IS A COMPREHENSIVE CAMPAIGN? A comprehensive campaign is a fundraising effort that focuses on a range of needs simultaneously. For its first-ever comprehensive campaign, Setting the Stage, Friends has established three priorities. Your gift to Friends this year will help us to fulfill all three of these critical needs.


SETTING THE STAGE : ENDOWMENT

Endowment

MISSION [Im]POSSIBLE Text books, tutoring, class trips, counseling … Here at Friends, where the Quaker ideals of diversity, community and equal opportunity are on par with academic excellence, ensuring that all students have access to enrichments not covered by tuition is an ongoing challenge. The Friends School Mission Fund helps alleviate the additional burden for many families.

‘ANGELS AT WORK’ The idea for the Mission Fund started years ago with several anonymous donors who recognized that even families who had received significant financial aid from the School were struggling to furnish the extras — things such as flute lessons and SAT prep classes that could spark their child’s learning and help ensure academic success. These supporters quietly began providing small donations on behalf of individual students, many of whom were classmates of their children. Word about the nascent program spread, and additional contributions arrived, albeit their impact was limited to the extent of the funds received each year. The program found firm ground in 2012 when a Board of Trustees task force began establishing consistent guidelines for disbursing Mission Fund gifts. The following year, the Class of 2013 dedicated a significant portion of its Senior Family Gift Effort to the Mission Fund; the Friends School Parents Association followed suit with several generous gifts. Today, the Mission Fund is actually a family of funds serving a common purpose that together provide $20,000 to $25,000 annually for education-related expenses beyond tuition. The proposed $1 million endowment created through Setting the Stage will generate approximately $50,000 annually, ensuring Friends is well positioned to support

Board member Barbara Katz, a Mission Fund proponent, volunteers in the Lower School Library. “Friends is my passion,” she says. “I serve on many Boards, but this is the most meaningful and fulfilling.” Through the Barbara P. Katz Mission Fund, she supports students in every division who have financial needs beyond tuition.

generations of students as they pursue their goals — in the classroom, in our music and art studios and on the playing fields and courts. At press time, the campaign had raised approximately $260,000 toward its $1 million goal.

SUCCESS STORIES Felicia Wilks, Director of Diversity, delights in sharing Mission Fund success stories, noting that the fund has enabled the College Guidance team to take several students on college visits. “This is important,” she shares, “because students who are able to visit college campuses and imagine themselves attending

a school are better equipped at promoting themselves to its admission office.” One recent trip resulted in several students applying and gaining admission to a number of Boston-area colleges, including one student who enrolled at Northeastern University and received a full-tuition/roomand-board financial aid award. Mission Fund monies were also used to assist a family with three children enrolled at Friends in supplementing the cost of outside tutoring for their fourth-grader. Recounts Wilks, “[The student] was struggling in reading and spelling, and this academic insecurity had transferred

to other areas of school life.” Since meeting weekly with a tutor, she adds, “[the student] is now an avid reader, takes pride in his academic accomplishments and is confident in sharing what he knows.” Along with these personal accounts, Wilks has noticed a positive change in Friends School culture. “Teachers now come to me and say things like, ‘I kept giving [a student] a ‘minor’ for being out of dress code. When I asked her why this was happening so frequently she said she didn’t have enough in-dress code clothing to make it through a full week. Can we help this student?’” Even the students are more attentive to what is happening with their peers, according to Wilks. “They’ll tell their teachers when they think one of their friends needs help — with sports equipment or lunch or a book for class,” she says. “There’s just a growing sense that we can help, so people feel more empowered to try.”

SUPPORTING THE CAUSE Financial support for the program abounds throughout the School community. Key

“There’s JUST A GROWING SENSE THAT WE CAN HELP, SO

people feel MORE empowered TO TRY.”

donors Suzy Katzenberg ’64 and Barbara Katz, a trustee and wife of the late Jay Katz ’45, have each endowed two named Mission Funds through Setting the Stage. The Friends School Parents Association continued its ongoing support of the Fund in December when it presented the School with a check for $100,000, the result of a challenge match for the campaign’s Faculty and Staff Gift Effort. (Faculty and staff giving to Setting the Stage had reached 97.5% participation by Nov. 1. At this year’s faculty and staff holiday party, the FSPA surprised the gathering with an early holiday gift by waiving the remaining 2.5 percent.) Likewise, the Classes of 2014 and 2013 and many alumni have made sizable (endowed and non-endowed) Mission Fund contributions in recent years. “The Mission Fund is an explicit acknowledgement of our responsibility not simply to make it possible for these children to attend Friends, but to ensure that every one of our students can be full and active participants in School life once they are here,” says Head of School Matt Micciche. In so doing, we as a community will reap the rewards, as our graduates go on to become compassionate do-ers, ready to take on the complex challenges of a global society. FS


SETTING THE STAGE : FORBUSH BUILDING

Forbush Building Transformation

Auditorium … at last! The outlines of a scene shop, including backstage cross-over space, stands atop the site of the former Lower School multipurpose room.

this time with a thoughtful plan that hit all the right notes. Central to this new vision was the idea that, rather than tear down an existing facility or add another building to our compact campus, the School would instead transform the existing Forbush Building into a 21st-century performing and visual arts venue. For the theater program, this entailed adding ample Auditorium wing space to accommodate the large casts the Middle and Upper School musicals annually draw, a scene shop and fly space for building and moving scenery, tension grid, and audio-visual, sound and light control booths to provide students interested in the technical aspects of production with hands-on experience. For the music department, the proposed plans included customizable acoustic panels to enhance sound quality of our Lower, Middle and Upper School ensembles. And for everyone, the proposed Auditorium would be handicapped accessible, with comfortable raked seating, a welcome upgrade from the folding chairs to which we’d grown accustomed.

SETTING THE STAGE : FORBUSH BUILDING

SPACE to SEE WITH so much attention being paid to the new Auditorium, it’s important to note that the Upper School visual arts program is undergoing a transformation of its own. More than just the physical spaces, the decision to bring nearly all of the disciplines, from painting and photography to new media, under one roof is generating a sense of renewed vitality and anticipation. “Proximity is going to be key,” says Ramsay Barnes, who with department chair Ben Roach, Erin Hall ’98 and art history instructor Amy Schmaljohn comprise the Upper School fine arts team. The building’s central location, layout and light-filled, open design “will foster a tighter connection among all the mediums and all the subjects we teach,” he adds. For example, digital arts is now taught in a separate building. Although the School is utilizing the original structure, Barnes is quick to point out that these are not retrofit spaces. “It’s a well thought-out studio environment,” he says. “It’s going to change the way we teach.” At the heart of this creative collective, serving as a hub from which the various disciplines branch out, is the Katz Gallery. Established in 2010 in honor of Joseph “Jay” Katz ’45, a former trustee who with his wife Barbara Katz established a fund in support of the School’s studio art program, the gallery has showcased the works of Friends students, alumni and visiting artists and has raised the community’s consciousness about art and its place in our lives. Like the renewed spaces for music-making, drama and communitybuilding housed within its walls, the Forbush Building’s new visual arts facilities will support a learning environment that best suits Friends students for the work they make now and for the type of work they’ll make in the future.

Upper School fine arts classes, meanwhile, would relocate from their increasingly cramped teaching spaces on the Upper School fourth floor to the lower level of the Forbush Building, where students and teachers would benefit from dedicated printmaking, drawing, painting and photography classrooms, plus enhanced space for exhibiting and discussing art. “The Forbush Building transformation brings our facilities in line with the high quality of our student performances and the full range of visual art that students create each day,” says Head of School Matt Micciche. “Our new spaces will foster creativity and offer students the best of what they need in order to leave our campus well-prepared for higher-level learning.” In many ways, the bricks-and-mortar component of Setting the Stage is the essence of the Friends philosophy, beginning with the School’s decision to retain the original structure. By choosing to renew Forbush, where generations of Friends students gathered for the rituals of School life, from Collection, to semiformal dances and promotion ceremonies, Friends not only conserves the energy that went into creating the building, but it also preserves the collective memories of generations of Friends School students who’ve passed through its halls since its dedication in May 1960. As for Michael McVey, although he jokes that he’ll believe it “when I enter the room, turn up the lights and see it with my own eyes,” it appears his long-held desire for a new Auditorium is finally coming to pass. FS An expansive stairway, atop which the outlines of a marquee appear, will open to a glass-enclosed atrium.

BACKSTAGE PASS A look at the people and the inspiration behind Setting the Stage.

A night for celebration! FRIENDS SCHOOL on Nov. 1, 2014 kicked off its $23 million campaign Watch it for yourself at friendsbalt.org/settingthestage

in grand style with a festive evening for donors and volunteers at The Belvedere. Here, Board of Trustees chair Bill White opens the program, which included an inspirational campaign video, created by Friends parent John Sherman and his Storyfarm team.

The Gift of a Lifetime ANNE HOMER MARTIN graduated from Friends

in 1937 in one of the first classes to emerge from the School’s Homeland campus, but she remained connected to Friends — personally, professionally and philanthropically — for nine decades. Ms. Martin served the School for more than 25 years, most of it in the Development Office, where she used her research skills to track down “missing” alumni; however, it was the teaching and learning that happens each day on our campus that motivated her in 2008 to make a gift of $230,000 to establish an Advanced Studies Fund for faculty. An avid sports fan, she

established a fund at the Baltimore Community Foundation that same year in memory of her sister, Frances M. Homer ’38, benefiting the Friends School Girls Lacrosse and Field Hockey teams. Her death in June 2013 left a hole in our collective hearts, but her generosity lives on today in the form of a $1.8 million unrestricted gift — essentially one-third of her estate. In tribute to this beloved alumna and colleague, the School has established a student-athlete scholarship fund, and we have named a space in the renovated Forbush Building in her memory so that her legacy and generous spirit live on.


SETTING THE STAGE : BACKSTAGE PASS

From the Board of Trustees ONE OF THE PRIVILEGES of serving on the Board of Trustees, most

recently as its chair, is the opportunity to participate in decisions and actions that positively impact the long-term health and vibrancy of the School and its community. Setting the Stage, by virtue of its unprecedented $23 million goal and its comprehensive nature, marks a real milestone in our School’s history. In fact, it may very well establish a new model by which we as a community envision, articulate and set about achieving the mission-driven work that lies ahead. And to think it all started with you — our dedicated parents, alumni, students and others whose voices and contributions directed us to the campaign’s three historic initiatives: 1) transforming the Forbush Building; 2) growing our endowment so that Friends will better reflect and serve the greater community; and 3) ensuring the excellence of our programs with unrestricted annual giving. When we hit our mark, this one campaign will have raised more dollars than the combined totals of every campaign in the School’s history — a fantastic accomplishment, and one we can all be proud of because so many of us have been a part of its success. This community phase marks the home stretch: We have come far, but we need your help in reaching the finish line. Your participation will make a tremendous difference. Bill White P’12 Chair, Board of Trustees

“When we HIT OUR MARK (WE) WILL HAVE RAISED MORE DOLLARS THAN THE

totals of every campaign IN THE SCHOOL’S HISTORY.” COMBINED

From the Chair of Setting the Stage

“To our students AND OUR GRADUATES ...

Friends IS MORE THAN A SCHOOL.”

WHEN THE BOARD set a goal of $23 million for this campaign, we knew it was bold and unprecedented. We also knew, based on early response from our leadership donors, that its three priorities resonated within our community. What we could not have predicted, however, was the enthusiastic response with which the campaign would be received. Since the kick-off of the campaign’s community phase on Nov. 1, 2014, individuals representing each segment of the Friends family, including graduates, parents, colleagues, grandparents and parents of alumni, have responded in growing numbers to our invitation to “be a part of something bigger.” It’s a statement that to some may seem audacious coming from a Quaker-based institution. To our students and our graduates, however, and to all of you who made their Friends’ educations possible, Friends is more

than a School: It’s the place where generations of young people found lifelong friends and mentors and discovered what it means to be “comfortable in one’s own skin”; where they discovered their true selves — poet, actor, goalie, activist; and where, in that sacred space of Quaker Meeting, they learned to listen to and trust in one another, and in themselves. In this way Setting the Stage is more than a fundraising initiative. It’s a promise, a way for those of us whose lives have been shaped or touched by Friends to rededicate ourselves to ensuring that this unique educational experience, and the timeless values and principles woven throughout, is available to even more families, now and for generations to come.

Philanthropy at Friends Gifts to Friends from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014


FROM THE DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT On the following pages, you will find Philanthropy at Friends: Report on Volunteer Support 2013-2014, our sincere acknowledgement of those who so generously gave to Friends School last year. The names you see in these pages represent the loyal donors who made gifts between July 1, 2013 and June 30, 2014. Each one listed is part of the legacy of financial stewardship that has allowed Friends to thrive for over 230 years. We applaud your generosity. We simply could not continue to do the essential work of our School without you. As you’ve learned so far in this publication, the momentum for Setting the Stage is growing. At this writing, we have achieved 87 percent of our $23 million goal through the generosity and dedication of so many. There are numerous highlights to report, but when asked about the campaign’s accomplishments, I readily offer the following: • Friends has secured over $19 million to date. • More than 50 percent of donors to our previous campaigns have increased their gift amounts to Setting the Stage. • We have secured 100 percent participation by the Board of Trustees, the Steering Committee and both the Alumni and the Parents Association Boards. • Our faculty and staff have participated at record levels in record time — a remarkable 97.5 percent had given by Nov. 1. • And perhaps most importantly: All of this is being accomplished by the more than 250 dedicated volunteers who, without compensation or personal benefit, are reaching out to fellow parents, alumni and others, asking them to join us in supporting this School we love. Participation in giving campaigns is an important measure of the strength of a school and the loyalty of its family and friends, and Friends has cultivated a broad, fervent base of support spanning generations. This is why we hope that when one of our volunteers reaches out by phone, mail or email, you will join us and “be a part of something bigger.” Remember: Every gift to Friends this year will go toward the $3.7 million still needed to complete this campaign. Our heartfelt thanks go out to all who have put their faith in Friends and who, through their annual financial support, help us to sustain and enhance our educational program, our campus and our community.

A Message from the Friends School Parents Association

second successful Festival of Friends in April, bringing the community together for food, fun and fundraising while eco-friendly endeavors included Square One Magnet Art and Growing Green Bulbs.

The Friends School Parents Association (FSPA) would like to thank its volunteers for their constant support during the 2013-2014 academic year. Hundreds of volunteers generated thousands of man hours and achieved a record percentage of parent participation in FSPA programs and events. Their gifts of time and talent helped us bring in over $90,000 this year for Friends. Highlights included a

MISSION FUND

$15,000 FSPA Donation Perhaps the most thrilling outcome of the FSPA’s work this year was the fulfillment of our $100,000 commitment to Friends School’s historic comprehensive campaign, Setting the Stage, which kicks off officially in 2014-2015. We hope you will share the joy of this success; we couldn’t do it without each and every FS parent. On behalf of the FSPA Board, thank you for helping us build and support our Friends School community. Beth Schelle FSPA Chair, 2013-2014

PHILANTHROPY AT FRIENDS

A Message from the Alumni Board We are thrilled to be Co-Chairs of the Friends School Alumni Board. This enthusiastic group of 20 men and women representing four decades at Friends works to build community among Friends alumni here in Baltimore and across the country through events and programs that celebrate our traditions and history: On-campus events, like the Thomas P. LaMonica ’67 Alumni BBQ at Scarlet & Gray Day in the fall and Alumni Weekend in May; and regional gatherings throughout the year in the Tri-State area, in Washington, D.C. and in cities across the country. In addition to these community building programs, the Board has rallied to help the School in its ongoing fundraising efforts. Friends relies on the generous support of all of its constituents, including alumni, to help the School provide the quality education that we enjoyed as students. It’s wonderful to see the generous and consistent support of our graduates. Among the highlights in 2013-2014: • Nearly 830 Friends School alumni (20%) overall contributed $520,573. This is, to date, the highest Annual Giving total raised in one year by Friends alumni. • Reunion classes collectively raised over $150,000 in both unrestricted and endowment gifts. Gifts to the School were made by alumni in the Class of 2009 celebrating their 5th Reunion, all the way to an alumna in the Class of 1929 celebrating her 85th Reunion!

Alumni support is a testament to the outstanding education we received, the values we learned and the friendships we formed. It’s a way of paying forward those formative experiences to the next generation. We encourage alumni to attend a gathering,

send in Class Notes, serve on your Reunion Committee, connect with your classmates and with the School, and make a gift — of any size — to show your support. On behalf of the Friends School Alumni Board, thank you for your support. Wilson Taliaferro ’99 Alumni Board Co-Chair

Rosalie Parker ’99 Alumni Board Co-Chair

ALUMNI NEWS : DIVERSITY NOTES

A Most Valuable Conversation BY FRANK BOND ’69

HOMECOMING at Friends is one of my favorite traditions. The renewal of friendships spans decades between alumni I looked up to from Middle School, to my contemporaries, to the classmates of my children. But Homecoming 2014 offered something unprecedented. I was invited to be a member of the host committee for an Alumni of Color Reception. The event seemed a welcoming invitation to an open dialogue on race and diversity at Friends School — one that felt in keeping with the spirit of Quaker Meeting in that the value of the gathering would be found in the narratives the participants were willing to share.

As one of the oldest alumni of color in the room, I shared the memories of my first year at Friends. An incoming seventh grader in 1963, I made the journey between two worlds each day. From a small row house in working class, predominantly black West Baltimore, I rode the Baltimore Transit bus, transferring lines twice, to reach the campus in white, affluent Homeland. My parents felt that such a stark transition was too much to ask of so young a child, and so they backed their commitment to our education (including my two younger siblings who would soon follow me to Friends) by buying a home in Ashburton, a neighborhood of single family homes with lawns and trees not unlike the area surrounding our new school. Such a move required some sacrifice on their part, but they believed that reducing the stress on their children would help us succeed. I was surprised to hear my narrative of that transition between separate worlds repeated by alumni 10, 20, 30 years younger than myself. It was even echoed by a current student. Each of us it seems had worked out the psychological gymnastics required to interact in the world of white power and privilege, then go back to the world of black striving … a world where the quest was to rise above the limitations and dead-ends confronting the black working class, and step through a door

of opportunity to compete with the majority population. There were pressures and anxieties on either end of that journey, and we had to find a sense of confidence and security on our own. To be sure I knew I had my parents’ support, but this was my work to do. When I was at Friends, the civil rights movement made talk of race and class and discrimination a part of everyday life. We as students were able to work things out well enough to be friends and allies and competitors in our teen world. In fact, since Friends was only integrated to the eighth grade when I entered in seventh, I daresay race gave me entrée to friendships with older students who were ready to embrace this bold new concept of friendship across old barriers. To hear that students in the 21st century still had to defend their choices of sports and music on the basis of racial stereotypes both at school and in their home communities came as a bit of a surprise. It should not have. I was reminded that at any time, activities and attitudes are brought

onto campus by all in the community from wherever they call home. It is only in knowing each other and having the faith and respect to maintain a climate of open dialogue, an environment where anyone can ask for help or offer it, that the Friends community can keep itself clear of the pollutants that retard our progress. I commend Matt Micciche for having the courage to convene such a gathering as we had, and the trust in the Friends community that people would participate in good faith, and bring information to share and questions to be answered. I learned at this gathering of the African American Male Mentoring Program that was started in 2012 to serve African American boys in grades 6 to 12. An African American Girls Mentoring Program for African American girls in grades 9 to 12 started this past year and next year will expand to include African American girls in grades 6 to 12. In the discussion it was clear that the first program was started because help was sought. Subsequent programs were added because the first one succeeded.

The African American Male Mentoring Program paused for a group photo in May 2014. Patrick Redrick, Sr., Al Holley (seated), Bobby Blackwell (center) and Kyle Harmon (fourth from right) lead the group.

It is clear to me that matters of race, class and gender will continue to impact our lives in America and even the course of our culture and public policies. The Friends School commitment to diversity as “The Way” and not “The Goal” compels us to understand how those factors are perceived on campus by students, faculty and parents. These mentoring programs promise to

educate students and the adult community to proceed with mutual understanding and respect. I would encourage all in the Friends community; alumni, parents, grandparents, to join the discussion. Sharing your experiences and asking questions will keep Friends School in a leadership position in offering the best opportunity for all students to achieve their highest potential. FS

ALUMNI NEWS : ALUMNI SERVICE AWARDS

ALUMNI SERVICE AWARDS 2014 For Friends alumni, there’s something special about receiving an award from your Headmaster, the person who handed you your diploma so many years ago. Which is why when Dr. Byron Forbush ’47 agreed to present the Distinguished Alumni and the Alumni Service Awards, respectively, to this year’s recipients, Joe Cowan ’64 and Staige Davis Hodges ’84, we were doubly delighted. Here, Collection offers his remarks in their entirety (or nearly so). Enjoy.

The Friends School Distinguished Alumni Award: Joe Cowan ’64, president, Cowan Systems, LLC I recall Joe so well, especially on the lacrosse field, although he also played basketball, was talented in football and for a year was a wrestler; a leader as class president but also for a couple of years a member of the Mixed Chorus. On to Hopkins, where he played on three consecutive championship N.C.A.A. lacrosse teams, earned first-team All America honors three times, twice received the prestigious Turnbull Award as the nation’s outstanding attack man and, in 1969, was recipient of the Lt. Ray Enners Award, given to the nation’s outstanding player. Inducted into three different Halls of Fame — the Maryland State Athletic, the Johns Hopkins University and the National Lacrosse, Joe served for 14 years as Hopkins’ assistant coach and went on to serve on the board of the Lacrosse Foundation. Step away from lacrosse for a moment and turn to business. The Cowan Trucking Company was founded by Joe’s father in 1924 and today is one of the country’s top 100 carriers, with a fleet of 1,750 trucks and 4,000 tractor tailors that serve throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Industry awards have come his way: Entrepreneur of the Year, Maryland Trucking Association; as have honors from his

community endeavors: Dyslexia Tutoring Program Man of the Year and membership to the advisory boards of the Johns Hopkins University School of Arts and Science, University of Maryland Shock Trauma and the Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center. In May 2013, I traveled to Washington, D.C. to witness Joe’s most recent honor: the Tewaaraton Legends Award, which is given to the one who in their day would have been presented the Tewaaraton, which is given annually to the best male and female player. For your accomplishments on the field, in your profession and in your community, it is my pleasure to present the Distinguished Alumni Award to Joe Cowan. The Outstanding Alumni Service Award: Staige Davis ’84 As a graduate of the Class of 1984, Staige Davis’s motto has been “classmates forever.” As far as I can tell, she never has left Friends School. After graduation, Staige went on to Duke University, returning to Friends during summers to work in the Admission Office. She assumed the class secretary post in 1988 the moment she left Duke and over the years has begged, cajoled and sometimes threatened her classmates to deliver. When her class’s 25th Reunion arrived, she created a newsletter containing stories, memories, photographs and sketches. The result was that 58% of the class returned for Reunion, a dramatic turn-out, as did many of their teachers, even those from Lower School, because Staige had made a point to reach out to them. This is her class’s 30th Reunion and with the help of social media she has rounded up the troops again. In her own words she has said, “I have tried to keep the class together and rekindle the feelings of unity and spirit we have.” On Staige’s yearbook page there are two lines predicting her future: “You will do foolish things. But do them with enthusiasm.” Being class secretary may be one of the foolish things you have done, but there is no doubt that you have done it with unusual enthusiasm. So to you Staige Davis Hodges, class secretary extraordinaire, I am pleased to present you with the Alumni Service Award for 2014 — may you keep up the good work. FS

It is with sadness that I report that Sy Seiler died from liver failure on August 30, 2014. His three children, David, Jean and Tom, held a life celebration at St. James Church in Monkton on October 4. Joanne Mathias Stevenson and I attended, along with Ed Butler and his wife Pat. Several people spoke of their fondness for Sy and his outgoing personality. His daughter said, “A lot of people would say my father was a character. He was a character with a kind heart.” Sy’s list of accomplishments and interests included real estate development, selling securities, teaching tennis and golf, horseback riding and Ferrari cars. I think the last time most of us saw Sy was at our 60th Reunion. He came dressed in a black shirt, black shorts, derby hat, suspenders and the ever-present tennis shoes. Yes, he was a character! Betty Mitchell Pearce celebrated her 80th birthday in late summer with all her family gathering for a few days at her beach house in Bethany Beach, Del. Brownie Pearce has officially retired, shutting down his topsoil business. As for me, my husband Clay and I had to cancel a trip to Italy because he got a bacterial infection in his replaced knee. In early September, he was operated on to remove the hardware and have a temporary joint put in place. As soon as the infection is completely gone, he will need another operation to put a permanent knee replacement back in. All this trauma occurred because of some dental work. Scary! Our trip has been postponed until next fall.

Our 60th class Reunion is April 30-May 2, 2015, and plans are developing for the class gathering. There are several of us working on details under Pat Fiol Morrill’s guiding hand, and you will be receiving notices about the event. This will be a special occasion particularly with your presence. Please do come! Pat Morrill writes that the summer was spectacular. “The weather was unusually cool, no humidity, so the Morrills have spent a lot of time at our beach house. In August, we rented the condo next door and had the entire crew with us, eight adults and eight grandkids. It was crowded and loud and messy, but I loved it. Last month, Bob and Wynelle Hudson Seiler and Roz Chenowith Carlson and her husband Dave came to the beach for a weekend. We had nightly rounds of a game called ‘Mexican Train,’ which we love. Good memories! Our oldest grandson, Zeke, went off to Georgetown University this fall. His brother, a junior at McDonogh, has committed to Yale, and Kaeleigh, a junior in Connecticut, has committed to the University of Pennsylvania. They are all lacrosse players. I guess Bill and I will be spending a lot of time on the road in the spring. Bill still plays lots of tennis, and he also has lunch every month with his buddies from Hopkins. I haven’t done much painting in the last year, but I plan on starting again soon. I had to have my shoulder replaced.” The members of “Club ’55” – Iris Windsor McFaul, Ginny Pearce Mitchell, Robin Biddison Dodd, Lolly Crowther Schorreck, Pat Peake Tisdale and Diane Lee ’56 – still get together for lunch once a month.

In response to my email to the class requesting information for this issue of Collection, I received the following note from Bruce Aufhammer. “Thank you for getting in touch with me. As, I’m afraid, has been my nature throughout my life, I don’t perceive anything I’m doing as being of any interest to anyone else. But, since you asked, I continue to write fiction and poetry, and teach as an adjunct professor at Rollins College — wallowing in the joys those endeavors give me. I had a delightful lunch and visit with Gretchen Seabold Johnson and John David in Mt. Dora, Fla., early this month. They both look wonderful.” I received a note from Bob Heaton, and it was seconded by Clarinda Harriss. “In September, classmates Clarinda Harriss, Tom McClain, Sue Bonnet Hamel and I met for lunch along with spouses Bill Hamel and Ann Heaton. During the event, Bob and Tom lamented the many weekends when Friends School girls decamped for Annapolis to dance with midshipmen. Clarinda reported that she and her mother, who taught at Eastern at the

time, once rounded up about 50 blind dates for such an occasion.” I close with the following: A wonderful weekend was spent at Martha Filbert Horner’s home in Easton, Md., in mid-September with old friends Mabel Miyasaki from San Jose, Calif., Nancy Bald Ripley from Niantic, Conn., Linda Windsor Siecke from Flemington, N.J., and myself (from Baltimore.) The highlight of the visit was a short trip down the road to Oxford for a tour of El Gale’on Andalucia, a reproduction of a l6th-century Spanish galleon, one of the tall ships that had been in the Baltimore Harbor in September during the big Star-Spangled Banner celebration. Lots of good food, fun and reminiscing was had by all!

Hungary and Germany. At the same time, Carl and I were on a river cruise from Bucharest, Romania (and into Transylvania to visit Dracula’s Castle and Fort), Bulgaria, Croatia, parts of Hungary and Budapest. We then went on to Vienna for a few days. Mac Price’s oldest grandson started his second year of pre-med with a heavy course load at William and Mary. His youngest grandson is a senior at Easton High School and will be captain of the tennis team. Mac has found some old Reunion pictures and plans to share them at our next Reunion. We have exciting news from Betsy Banghart Flaherty. She is engaged to Paul Bratz of Savannah, Ga., formerly of Pittsburgh. The wedding is scheduled for November 6, 2014. Susan Stott Dugan writes that this summer she invited her four children to join her in the Poconos for a mini-vacation (no grandchildren or spouses). They are spread out from New England to Texas to California so visiting had become a challenge. The visit was a rewarding experience and could become a yearly event. Susan Rugemer Kurtz stays busy with her wonderful family and frequently sees her grandchildren. She is now getting ready for Nick’s 5th birthday, which involves shopping his wish list and wrapping his gifts. She volunteers for the Friends School library, where she says, “I stay until I have shelved every book no matter how long it takes!”

1959 Anne Carter Bowdoin abowdoin@mac.com The 1959 Class Reunion in May was attended by 13 of us, including: Jim Bird, Anne Carter Bowdoin, Anna Panzironi Bulgari, Chipper Bupp, Bob Feild, Meredith Felter, Martha Kegan Graham, Henry Hammond, Karl Pfrommer, John Pollard, Ted Rosenberg, Fay Karfgin Stephens and Nick Stoer. Meredith and her husband Bud Leizure invited the class to their house afterward for the class party, where we enjoyed wonderful food and listened to ’50s pop music brought to the party by Henry Hammond. Henry, along with Bob Field and Karl Pfrommer helped Meredith put on the party. It looks like many of us have the travel bug lately, and some of our classmates have moved South. Anna Bulgari lives in NYC and continues to travel much of the year. Chipper and his wife Marie Paule live outside Paris. Chip spends time traveling, and, even though he has not gone on any game hunting trips to Africa lately, he has become a collector of antique guns. Meredith and Bud have been touring the East Coast this past year, including visits to Lexington, Ky., where their son Kurt and his family live. Jandy and Jim Bird live on Sanibel Island, Fla., year-round now. In fact, when I visited Sanibel this past February, Martha

invited me and my friend Bill Duryea and the Birds for dinner. Martha writes and illustrates children’s books, and Jim is a successful portrait artist in his retirement. Much too modest, he has no website, so I couldn’t see any of his paintings, but I learned that his work is much sought after on the island. Henry and Leigh Hammond went on an opera tour in Europe this past summer. John Pollard shared news about one of his sons, John D., who is a screenwriter for successful TV shows, including “Crash,” which aired on Starz last year. Ted and Michelle Rosenberg have visited China, where one of their daughters lives and works. I recently heard from Frank Grant, who continues to have a successful career in New York writing songs and music for use in advertising. Some of the music you hear playing in ads for pharmaceuticals are Frank’s creations. Fay Stephens visited a friend in Cape May during the summer for a few wonderful weeks by the sea. Alice Seivold McDonald writes that she and her friend Karl, who is a retired professor, have traveled and lived for a short time in Mexico. While living there they trekked on horseback into the Sierra Madre Mountains where they saw the Monarch butterfly homeland, a spectacular sight. Alice said, “They blanketed the area, orange snowflakes floating on air currents, were massed on tree boughs and strewn along the trickling creek like colorful fall leaves.” During the last four years they have also traveled to Provence, Italy and to Spain, and went on a few cruises where Karl gives onboard lectures. Alice now lives in Rainbow Springs, Fla., and has become involved with the community there. Ann Green Slaybaugh has settled her estate in Virginia and is now living full time at her home in Catonsville. She plans to start traveling again. Martha Graham reports that she and her daughter traveled to Paris in August, where she practiced her not-forgotten high school French in a few bistros. Martha’s daughter is a pastel artist and Martha is an oil painter, and both teach art so they loved all that Paris had to offer. Dan Reed and Claire went on a two-week riverboat tour through Central Europe this past spring. They began in Amsterdam and traveled through Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary, ending in Budapest. They loved the trip and recommend it. Dan and Claire have moved to Delaware near Rehoboth Beach. Marcy Price

retired at the end of August this year and closed their store, “The Sporting Life,” in Greenspring Station. He and Betsy are selling their house in Butler and plan to move to Aiken, S.C. Nick and Joan Stoer went on a 14-day cruise to the Black Sea last year, stopping in Sevastopol, Yalta and Odessa, all in the news in the last few months because of the Russian occupation in the Crimea and general unrest in the Ukraine. They planned to go to the Galapagos Islands this fall. As for myself, I left New Hampshire in 2010 and now live in Newburyport, Mass., two blocks from my youngest daughter Julie and her family. I continue to travel although not as far away as I used to. Last September, my friend for the last seven years, Bill Duryea, and I traveled to Prague with a small group. I was unprepared for the beauty and charm of this city. It is graced by a river, beautiful bridges and an ancient castle that sits on a hill overlooking the river. We learned much about the years when the Nazis occupied the country, immediately followed by Soviet occupation. We also traveled to Krakow, Poland and spent an afternoon at Auschwitz, an experience I will never forget. We planned to travel to Turkey this October and possibly join Meredith and Bud on a Caribbean cruise in January. YES ... the class of ’59 is going places!

1960 Mary McElroy Mem2008@comcast.net Tom Baker says he is still working at Syracuse University and enjoying it “in the main” except that the College of Law moved into a new building over the summer and that wasn’t much fun. He has fun memories involving Chip Cowles of long-ago summers at his “down-the-river” house, badminton in the backyard of Eli Renn and the nostalgia-touched days of June Week in 1960! In the past year he gained a new granddaughter, Delphine. Her older brother Monty is now 7. Tom recently had a joyous weekend visiting with his Yale roommate. He continues to play piano and hopes to do more of it when, and if, he retires. As his classmates, we remember Tom and his wonderful piano playing, so we are glad he is still doing that and loving it. Sandy Cochran reports that he and his wife Gail moved

10 years ago from their house in Boston to a two-bedroom condominium in Jupiter, Fla., where they are very happy. He works as a certified professional yacht broker and his wife is a gerontology nurse doing part-time home healthcare. Catherine Felter says she has been in her current home for 21 years and is gradually doing upkeep to get it ready to sell “in maybe 10 to 15 years!” She is still working (30 hours of work) at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins Hospital for the same “boss” she’s had since 1989 and says she enjoys the structure and friendships. Most of her energy now goes into four grandchildren, ages 2½ to 11 years, all living in Baltimore, and doing lots of volunteering on committees at Stony Run Meeting and the American Friends Service Committee. She also clerks a group (mostly from Stony Run) that wants to develop a program to address the violence in the lives of too many young people. After almost two years, they finally expect to begin a “Civic Engagement and Empowerment” curriculum they developed in conjunction with AFSC and have raised $5,000 for a trainer to work with elementary and middle school children in a high-risk area near Johns Hopkins Hospital. Susan DeHoff Montgomery’s report of visiting Nonnatus House in London reminded Cathy of her time there in 1958 as an exchange student from Friends. The PBS “Call the Midwife” show is now up to 1959, about the same time as her visit. It feels strange to have part of our lives now seen as history! Betsy Beatty Gable has moved to her house in Rockport, Mass., year-round and loves it, especially in the summer. In September,

she and Bruce took their annual Bailey Island/Monhegan, Maine trip with Tom Baker joining them. In August, she had a big family reunion, with all but her daughter Lisa’s family present. Lisa is the lead attorney for a big Texas voter ID case for which she has been preparing for eight months so was unable to attend. Happily, everyone gathered again in October over the long Columbus Day weekend. In March, she and her family had an earlier reunion in Annapolis, where they stayed in a house they found through the Internet that could hold all 13 of them! Michael Jackley is one of several of our class, including Susan Huff Schmitt and Joe Ramage, who are moving into some version of a retirement community. Michael is pursuing legislation in Virginia to increase the standards and monitoring of such places, a task for which, as a retired lawyer, he is well suited. Go Michael! Steve Levinson reports that he and his family are all fine and busy. Steve is still working, currently building a 55,000-square-foot office building at Calvert and Federal streets in downtown Baltimore. They have moved into a new house, which they love. They have two dogs and three grandchildren from their son Josh, who now has five Charm City Run stores. Their daughter Maren lives in Los Angeles and works as a photographer’s agent. Her business is called Redeye Reps. Brad Meyer is adjusting to life as a widower. He lost his wife last year after 42 years of a happy marriage. He is playing more folk music and spending time with family and friends. He is postponing travel while caring for two geriatric dogs. He is enjoying all of his grandchildren immensely — including

the most recent addition to the family, who bears the imposing name of Ezra Ignacio Pope Meyer. Susan DeHoff Montgomery continues to travel, an important part of her life. In June she spent time in London, where she lived for many years, visiting friends and places old and new. She took a walking tour of East London and saw the real Nonnatus House, as in the PBS series “Call the Midwife.” In August, she visited Maine, driving 2,200 miles from Denver with her daughter Camilla and grandchildren Sam and Amelia. On the way they visited Frank Lloyd Wright’s home in Oak Park, Ill., Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Mich., and the cities of Montreal and Toronto. They had the “time of their lives,” but were all happy to fly home! Fred Motz has joined those in our class who have moved. He and Diana have downsized to a condominium. John Novogrod reports that he is still a partner in his New York law firm and the chairman of his practice group. In September, his wife Nancy retired after 21 years as editor-in-chief of “Travel & Leisure” magazine and is now writing a book on women, power and fashion. Their son Jamie is a producer for Richard Engel, NBC’s chief foreign correspondent, and has traveled to the Ukraine during that country’s recent unrest as well as Dagestan, Chechnya, Russia and Gaza, and is now in Turkey on the Syrian border near the current fighting. Their daughter Caroline graduated from Yale Law School in 2012 and is now a lawyer in the banking group at Debevoise & Plimpton, a New York law firm. Caroline was married this past June to a great guy whom she

met in law school. Jeannie Pohlhaus reports that she is very happy in a new relationship after losing her husband several years ago. She has purchased a condominium (the first home she has acquired on her own), and she and Bob Miser are enjoying planting a new garden around her patio. Jeannie has become quite an accomplished Realtor after 35 years in the business. She has received many local and state awards and is serving or has served on the boards of many local, state and national realty organizations. She has served as president of both the Greater Baltimore Chapter and the Maryland State Chapter of the Women’s Council of Realtors. She is currently associate broker with Berkshire Hathaway Homesale Realty. Joe Ramage reports that he and Mary Ann moved to Cedarfield, a retirement community in Richmond, Va., last November after 38 years in a house they loved. He made a trip to Europe in August, including London, Normandy, Paris and Berlin, with the Virginia Historical Society. This is their second trip centered on WWII. While in England, the group had a private visit and champagne tour of Highclere Castle, the location site for the PBS series “Downton Abbey.” Susan Huff Schmitt continues to enjoy Shell Point, the life care community in Ft., Myers, Fla. she moved into in 2009. Her mother used to live there, and other family may move there in the future. Susan appreciates the security of the place and enjoys “hanging out” with the gardeners, the birders and the artists.

also shares in the enjoyment. Ann McAllister Windsor reminded me that our graduation date is her wedding anniversary with Frank Windsor ’58. So whenever we all meet they have a double celebration! Our 55th Reunion next year will be a family one for them, including Kate ’85 and Andrew ’90. Last year, Ann and Frank worked on their bucket lists with a trip to Southeast Asia, India, Nepal and Turkey. They are now auditing courses about the areas at the University of New Hampshire: “Geography of the Middle East” and “Southeast Asia.” For fun, Frank plays golf and Ann gardens and volunteers. Whenever possible they get together with their children and grandchildren. Each summer they all gather in Provincetown, Mass., on Cape Cod, near the national seashore, where they ride bikes and eat lobster. I had a very relaxing summer, working on my jewelry — mainly sterling pendants and necklaces made of hand-blown Venetian glass beads — while sitting by the pool. I’ve also been crocheting caps for a charity group that gives them to young children (last year, the group collected over 11,000 caps and other items!) and took a stationery-making class, which was a lot of fun but in practice — after buying too many supplies — turned out to be much harder than anticipated. This probably won’t continue as a craft priority!

Jackie Hornor Plumez took time off from her psychology practice in Larchmont, N.Y., to travel, most recently to Rome and Sicily. Twice yearly she visits her daughter and grandchild in Singapore. Look for Jackie’s latest book, “The Bitch in Your Head, How to Finally Squash Your Inner Critic,” in 2015. A first for Jackie will be a novel, coming in 2016, about an adventurous heroine growing up in Baltimore and attending Friends School! Jim Woodcock just returned from Vermont for his son’s wedding. Also living in Vermont are his daughter and her three sons. Jim’s youngest is at Temple majoring in advertising and French. Jim lives in Severna Park with the love of his life, Colleen. Jeannie Wright Meyer continues teaching Spanish and French at Mt. St. Joseph High School in Baltimore and at The Community College of Baltimore County in Hunt Valley. Traveling in the summer is her joy and relaxation. Unlike Larry Hanley, who loves snow and winter on his farm in Sparks, Md., there are those of us who have headed South: Bob Seabold and wife Nancie are enjoying life at the Villages in Florida; his brother Bill Seabold and his wife Evelyn are only an hour away and, even closer, is their sister, Gretchen Seabold Johnson ’56. Also, Geri and Nathan Smith are

grandsons. Nina reports that their grandson would have been a terrific candidate for Mr. Nick’s classroom. The Cohens volunteer with the Newport Music Festival, the theater and symphony. Oh, they also help with vision screening for students, offered through the Lions Club. Martha Welch Taylor married her partner of 21 years last December and is now a semiretired therapist hoping to retire in two years. She enjoys her condo in West Palm Beach, traveling and keeping up with her grandchildren. Anne Wasserman Luther enjoys retirement in Little Rock, Ark., by taking classes and volunteering at a local library. She continues to give talks on gluten and paleo lifestyles. Her grandchildren are in Wisconsin, so visiting them is also on her schedule. Brian and Anne Robinson Hooker are enjoying retirement after becoming desert rats in Tucson, where they like to hike and paint. Anne has taught English, math and technical communications over the years. Other quick updates: Jane Benson Timberg and Lee like to travel, read and spend time with grandchildren in their Severna Park home. Patrick and Mary Faith Woodman Miller journeyed to Temagami, Canada this summer. After retiring as a physics professor, Bill Wharton volunteers at the University of Colorado basketball games. Bert Taylor spends time hiking, sailing, gardening and chopping wood on his island home off the

reasonable direct flight to BWI. Looking forward to hearing from more of you in the coming months for the next issue of Collection.

1962 Eleanor Blake Fuller eaerobic@hotmail.com John Slingluff and his wife Paula have a million grandkids. Well, 10 is close enough. They were busy going back and forth to the Adirondacks several times this summer with all of their kids and grandkids. Please note the picture of all of them with John and Paula taken in August. In September, John and Paula headed back there to host their 40th annual fun-filled oyster roast. The event benefited the Cornell Cold Water Fisheries Research Program. Mary Ellen Fischer and Eric moved this summer to a semi-detached “cottage” in a retirement community just outside Saratoga Springs, Fla. When they returned to Mary Ellen’s home of 33 years, they only had six weeks before the move. So, the first half of the summer was spent packing and downsizing. By late September, they were still unpacking but say they love their new place. During November, they spent two weeks in Sarasota for her stepgrandson’s wedding. In January, they will go on a Caribbean cruise to escape the snow. Next spring, they will visit Kauai and Maui. And they plan to return to Saratoga next summer for the

Linda Brecht Stevens lindabstevens@aol.com The news of the death of Carol Witt MacPhail on September 24, 2014 has truly saddened our class. Our sincere sympathy goes to all of her family. Our reflection on her time on this earth causes us to think more deeply of our own lives and interactions with family and friends. Thank you to those who have responded to requests for updates as we move closer to our 55th Reunion in 2016. Keep the last weekend in April/first weekend in May 2016 highlighted on your calendar! Joyously celebrating their 50th anniversary this year, Susan Stafford Trew and Mort traveled to Table Rock Lake, Mo., to gather with their four children’s families, including eight grandchildren, from four states. Susan highly recommends the lake as they all had a “golden” time! The Trews run an Angus beef cattle

is good.” (Bruce actually wrote to me while he and Lucy were visiting with Kathy and Terry Walker and sent along a picture.) During their time together, Bruce and Terry shared fond memories of Mr. Nick and the four of them enjoyed a fall trip through Maryland and Virginia as well as North and South Carolina. Stephen and Carol Davidson Methven have a new granddaughter, Taylor, born in August. This makes their ninth grandchild with four boys and five girls. Carol says, of course, she is a cutie! In September, they were getting ready for their annual trek to Montana and were so excited that the government does not plan to shut down this year so that they will actually be able to go into Yellowstone, unlike last year. They enjoy photographing wildlife and planned to have a guide to help them look for wolves. They planned to be in Montana for two weeks and then on to Colorado for a week. “I love the fall out West,” she says. Buck and Linda Kardash Armiger made their spring trek to Keymar, Md., where they visited their granddaughters, MacKenzie and Logan, and saw them play their final softball tournaments. They also saw a spring concert, in which Logan had a piano solo. MacKenzie had a small speaking part in the program about the 200th celebration of the Battle of Baltimore. The children wore red, white and blue and carried flags, which they waved throughout the performance. It was very touching. Linda and Buck also visited the grandgirls’ classrooms in the fall and found the children to be refreshingly polite and attentive. Manners still exist! Then they attended MacKenzie’s final summer horse show. She ended up “Mini-Stirrup” year-end Grand Champion. Linda’s daughter Kelly has been helpful with the riding lessons. Wonder where she got her riding skills? Linda is enjoying their boat, and this summer they cruised the Patuxent River several times with friends and enjoyed the great weather. Buck is planning to fish for those fall rockfish since he was unable to do this summer due to cataract surgery in both eyes. This fall, Linda and Buck are visiting the Western Maryland Scenic Railway to enjoy the fall foliage. Over the winter, they will stay on a former plantation in Summerville, S.C., outside of Charleston, which is one of their favorite places. She hopes everyone stays well. Colette and Wayne Sutherland are enjoying their “tiny little beach house” in Rehoboth Beach, Del. As the tourists are leaving,

they are getting their town back. They just celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary but have been together for 15 years. Colette’s daughter and husband are expecting their first child in April 2015. Colette is French Canadian so Wayne and Colette will be Pepe and Meme. Soon, they will be visiting Asheville, N.C., Nashville and Memphis, Tenn., Cherokee, Wyo., and Huntsville, Ala., to see the sights and some relatives. Afterward, they plan to adopt a cat. Wayne says hello to all and looks forward to our 2017 Reunion. Robin and Nick Nicolls tell us that they had a most pleasant summer and fall. All of the kids, grandkids and steps are fine. Jim Hammond continues to fill in for services of worship in his home congregation, as needed. His sermons, for those who may be suffering from insomnia, can be found in audio files at trinityupperville.org. He also helped out at Christ Church in Millwood, Va., this summer. Chris Sherman Raywood now has good new knees so she spent a delightful week in Baltimore with brother Bill Sherman ’69 and family, celebrating the big 7-0. In July, the whole Sherman clan visited Chris at her home in Delray Beach, Fla., but the older girls rented a cottage near the beach. Chris had everyone for dinner, which meant lots of cooking and lots of fun together. Bill’s grandson, 2, is walking and talking a lot. On to trips: Chris’ fall adventure included a trip to Sweden, where she met a friend in Stockholm before heading on to Kalmar, where glass factories are located. She

then headed to Copenhagen, Denmark. They were lovely countries to visit but very expensive. Afterward, she was happy to get back to the Eurozone with stops in Bremen, Germany, Haag, Holland, Ghent, Belgium and finally London. It was an interesting and busy three weeks. She even had a chance to catch up with Susie Seiler Haw, who celebrated her 70th in September. Susie was planning lunch with her daughter and family and an evening playing violin in a chamber music group at a friend’s home. Susie’s granddaughter is living with her now and starting college this fall. Thank you, Chris, for filling us in on Susie. Finally, Chris was in Baltimore in October to host a bridal shower with her two nieces for their sister, which was fun. After all of that, she says she was happy to be home for a little while. Emily Holman writes that her dad recently passed away at the age of 98. Her family misses him but is very grateful for his long, productive life and his active presence with them for so many years. Her mother’s brother, who taught at Westtown Friends for many years and was clerk of several Meetings, also died recently. Emily also attended two weddings — one of her brother Hugh Holman ’64’s stepdaughter, and the other of her brother John’s son. She also has two new great-nieces, so, as old lives pass, new ones begin. Travelwise, in May, Emily followed the “Route of the Maya” in El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala and Belize with Overseas Adventure Travel. They visited ruins,

historic sites, villages, markets, a school and a village to see how the ancient Mayans lived and how their descendants live now. In October, Emily was going to leave for a Road Scholar/Mir Corp. trip “On the Silk Road” in five Central Asian “‘stan” countries between China and the Caspian Sea, so she is learning her Asian geography and visiting places, like Samarkand, that always sounded exotic to her. Ministry-wise, she still serves on the local Habitat for Humanity board and two diocesan committees and helps her parish with pastoral care and special projects. Her church is getting ready to celebrate its sesquicentennial year, so there will be many special activities going on. So … our youngest classmate — oh no, I just mean our youngest dad — Eric Stoer has a son, Henry, who’s in the seventh grade at Severn School. Eric and Henry in September played in a local charity golf tournament: Henry’s drives measured 241 yards, and the team used his drives nine times that day! Eric has also been the assistant coach for Henry’s lacrosse team for the last three years. He reports that Henry has been on the honor roll every semester, is on the school’s varsity chess team and plays a pretty fair Scott Joplin on the piano. Eric, I think, is enjoying all of this and staying young! Although Anita Baker says she doesn’t have much to report, I disagree. She is still working full time as a program director for the University of Maryland University College M.B.A. course in international business. Her husband,

John Lampe, was awarded emeritus status at the school and is very busy in his so-called retirement: The second edition of one of his books was published earlier this year, and he just delivered a keynote address at a conference in Belgrade, Serbia and was in Budapest, Hungary working on forthcoming publications. He also is a scholar at the Wilson Center in Washington, D.C. Diana Fleischer Schofield reports, “Me and my kidney are doing great!” (Now, where did she get that English?) Her lab reports are so good, in fact, that her doc is not making her have the usual biopsy they do after one-and-a-half years. However, she still has to take her evening regime of 11 pills during the day. She is still working part time for an outpatient substance abuse practice and enjoying it. Some of the groups she runs include inner-city residents who are court-ordered to attend such sessions after receiving DUI or possession of marijuana convictions. She says these men have a hard time believing she can take over 21 pills a day and that not one of them makes her high! Says Diana, “The grandsons are doing great at Friends. Gray is now a freshman and still doing his math thing. He took geometry at Gilman this summer and got the highest score they have had in 17 years. And, of all surprises, his history teacher is Rich Seiler ’68. Her younger grandson, Henry ’24, is in the third grade at Friends and loving school. Diana had fun attending Friends’ Scarlet and Gray Day festival in September. Her other half, Larry, is still teaching math at Centennial High but stepped down from coaching volleyball. He actually talks about retiring soon. Then what will he do? He talks about being a ski operator in Park City, Utah. Other times, they talk about moving to Delaware, possibly around Lewes. Good luck with the Utah choice, Diana. Bob and Barbara Ensor Sena have a 2002 Harley Heritage Softail and a Raptor Toy Hauler and vacationed in Deadwood, S.D., which they say was beautiful, during Sturgis Bike Week. They are getting ready to retire and do some traveling. Watch out, they may come to one of our towns soon! Barb is still working for the City of Aubrey and was recently promoted to finance director, while Bob is retired. Susan Bliss and Jerry are visiting San Francisco to celebrate Jerry’s 80th birthday and Susan’s 69th. They plan a few dinners at the city’s famed vegan restaurant, Millennium, and also Greens.

They also plan to cross the Golden Gate Bridge on foot as well as see the Bay Lights (the LED sculpture of the western span of the Oakland Bay Bridge by Leo VIllareal, givelove.the baylights.org). They will explore the Presidio. The former Army base was decommissioned and, because of the beauty of its spectacular site, was converted in 1994 to a National Historic Landmark District. It covers 1,491 acres that include biking and hiking trails, beaches, board sailing and kite-surfing areas, beaches, picnic sites, dog-walking parks, bird watching and more. Susan, you may be the baby in our class! Most of us are already hitting or have hit that next decade — lucky you! I will mention the enjoyable cruise and European trip we took recently. We traveled on the Cunard Queen Elizabeth 2 to England and took the Eurostar (the “chunnel”) to France, where we met our friends who had come from Colorado and rented a car for all of us to travel through Europe. Although we can’t keep up with Chris, we did spend 12 days touring France, Germany, Switzerland and ending in Vienna, Austria. Our friends are used to the mountains in Colorado and have visited these areas, so they were very comfortable driving and showing us some of what they have seen before. We visited the Gruyere cheese factory and, of course, for me, Caillier chocolate in Switzerland. Stopping for a little wine and cheese along the way — as well as viewing beautiful castles and enjoying concerts — made the trip very special for us. Most unusual was Jungfrau in Switzerland, which is the highest point in Europe at about 13,000 feet. A little cold, a little dizziness, but an experience you cannot re-create. We took two trains to the top of the Alps

and then walked through a maze of all of the ice tunnels built for travelers to visit. Do it if you can! Thanks to so many of you who were kind enough to share some of your lives with your fellow classmates. Hope you will keep it up. As always, stay healthy.

Donna Hasslinger dhassli@aol.com The Class of ’63 continues to keep in touch with classmates and travel to visit friends and family. Last winter, while Linda LaMonica Monk and her family were in Vermont, Hank Kaestner and his wife Josie took Linda on a wonderful tour while Linda’s family was skiing. Linda thought Hank and Josie were great hosts and that Hank would make a wonderful tour guide if Joan Shinnick Kreeger ever needs a partner. In the spring, Judy Klingelhofer O’Mara, Gail Moran Milne, Joan Shinnick Kreeger, Anne Skinner White, Barbara Nolte Kearney, Marge Rowe Felter and Donna Hasslinger met for one of our two class lunches, held each year in Baltimore. It continues to amaze me that we still have plenty to talk about after all these years. We missed seeing Joe Albert who at the last minute came up with tickets to the Hopkins vs. Syracuse lacrosse game, which for anyone in the Class of ’63 is a very acceptable excuse for missing lunch. After all, lacrosse was a big part of our lives and particularly for those who were on the team that won the Maryland State Boys Lacrosse Championship! Dave Phillips and his wife Susan also

have been on the road as they headed from Wisconsin to Marathon Key in Florida for a couple of weeks of vacation with family last March. They welcomed their 11th grandchild, Scarlett Belle, and continue to have the most grandchildren among our classmates. Gail Levinson Shawe and her husband Steve spent quite a bit of time traveling around the country last spring. Their daughter delivered twin boys in San Francisco and their second son was married. No wonder Gail said she was exhausted! Over the summer, Joan Shinnick Kreeger led two travel tours: One was to the Rocky Mountains and included Banff and Lake Louise; the other was to Iceland, one of Joan’s favorite countries. Later, Joan and her significant other, John, traveled for a month touring France and Ireland. In August, Lin Parker and his wife Anne stopped by Hank and Josie Kaestner’s summer house (called a “summer camp”) on Lake Champlain in Vermont. Hank and Josie visited the Parkers at their Maine home last year and hope to see them again in Maine sometime soon. Joe Albert spent some time on Block Island last summer with his daughter Piper, her husband Larry and their son Jagger. Piper mentioned that she and Joe were throwing around a lacrosse ball. No surprise there! They also were able to spend some time together in Rehoboth and then back in Maryland before Jagger returned to school, where he is again a member of the Music Honor Society. Jagger had a busy year playing the piano and he is still training with irocku’s Chuck Leavell, former keyboardist for the Rolling Stones.

In September, they began to take advantage of opportunities to downsize and shed a lot of their accumulated possessions. Lary is still playing his guitar with the Sun City Mountain Strings, a group with 40 members, and plays at local events. Originally, the group included just mountain dulcimers, but it has expanded to include banjos, mandolins, bass and guitars. Lary remembered that Ruth Meyer ’62 was a dulcimer player. He misses all our classmates and wishes he was close enough to join us for one of our class luncheons. Chick Fetter Deegan and her husband Mike enjoyed a Viking River Cruise in Europe over the summer. At lunch in Heidelberg, Germany they were seated next to two couples from Annapolis/Sherwood Forest who happened to know Judy, Linda Monk and Gretchen Taylor May. Small world! In July, Linda and her husband Harrison spent two weeks cruising the British Isles, and after they returned, they celebrated Harrison’s 70th birthday with Gretchen, Gail Milne, Marge and Jeb Felter and Judy and Jack O’Mara. In August, they spent two weeks at the Cape with all of their grandchildren, three of whom attend Friends schools: Their son Gage Monk ’92’s daughter Katherine ’24 attends Friends, and daughter Christine Monk Huxtable ’87’s kids, Nathaniel and Annabelle Huxtable, attend Wilmington Friends School. Next, Linda and Harrison traveled to Prince Edward Island for some quiet rest and relaxation, followed by trips this fall to New Hampshire, Martha’s Vineyard and then to Rhode Island to meet some friends. In December, they planned to

join Jack and Judy O’Mara in Williamsburg to tour, while the “natural” holiday decorations are in place, and to see the “Celebration of Quilts” exhibit at the Abby Aldrich Museum. Linda also heard from Keiko Hashimoto Kishimoto, who said that she and her husband Tachi had just returned home to Japan after a wonderful trip to Europe. And finally, congratulations to Bill Dawe who is retiring after a distinguished career as an attorney in Des Moines, Iowa. The number of those retired in our class is growing … slowly. Our next class luncheon is scheduled for March 2015 in the Baltimore area, and we encourage our classmates to join us.

Traveling with two close friends, they took day trips to more than a dozen towns from their rented house located in Pernes-les-Fontaines.

to move to New York and devote more time to his own creative, scholarly and real estate projects. His seventh book, “Imperatives of Culture: Essays on Korean History, Literature, and Society from the Japanese Colonial Era,” was co-edited with former classmates from UCLA’s graduate program in Korean literature and cultural studies. Presently, he is working with the visual artist O Woomi Chung to create site-specific video installations using either roaming hand-held (pico) projectors or the rickety motorhome, whose three-windowed forehead they have transformed into a mobile projection booth. Walter is also an avid gardener and is particularly interested in reverting suburban land from resource-intensive lawns to native plants, fruit trees and wildlife. He remains a die-hard Orioles fan, as passionate during the 14 straight losing seasons as he is about the team’s success this year. Beth Belcher Blake lives in Richmond, Va., where she is risk manager for BB&T Securities. A graduate of UVA’s McIntire School of Commerce, she has served in a variety of roles throughout her financial services career. An empty-nest baby-boomer, Beth has two beautiful millennial daughters, Sara and Emily. Sara is an art director living in Manhattan and traveling all over the world; Emily is married and lives in Cleveland, where she is finishing her master’s in public health at Case Western Reserve.

As for me, your class secretary, I live on the coast as well, in the small town of Hull, south of Boston. I have been married to Spencer for 31 years, and we have four sons, who are all in their 20s. Three have graduated from college and are out living and working on their own, and the youngest is a junior at UMass. I work as a school psychologist (a later-in-life career) at a K-through-12 charter school — a job that is challenging, rewarding, and always interesting.

1976 John Humphries jehriver@aol.com Rachel Talalay writes that she was in Cardiff and London for the summer directing the series 8 finale of “Doctor Who,” which aired in November. They managed to shut down St. Paul’s Cathedral for filming. Lisa Corinne Davis reports that her daughter Corinne graduated from Brown University and started a job at the assignment desk at ABC. Her son Davis is working on illustrations for a book with the author Joseph McElroy. Lisa was promoted to full professor at Hunter College and recently had a solo exhibition of her work in Hudson, N.Y., where she lives and paints in the summer months. Sadly, the Class of ’76 lost Raymond Lewis Carpenter on September 13, 2014. Ray was a Friends School long-timer, joining the class in kindergarten. His talent and performance in athletics, including football, basketball and lacrosse, put him in the Friends School Athletic Hall of Fame. Throughout his years at Friends and beyond, Ray was known for his gentleness, kindness and friendliness and for being extremely competitive on the court and fields. His loss at the young age of 56 came as a surprise to his classmates, and he will be greatly missed by us all. Via Facebook, Byron Burks noted that playing with and against Ray in sports made Byron a better athlete. Bryan Carpenter recalled that they had lots of chuckles over the years in their roles as identical twins separated at birth. Classmates were grateful that Ray was able to attend the 35th Reunion in 2011 to revisit

with him and appreciate his many fine qualities. From Steve Stuart’s eulogy: “Throughout his life, Ray exhibited grace, dignity and class in his actions, always showing great respect for others.”

Jill Jacobson Hutensky says, “It’s hard to believe it has been almost 30 years since we were all together. I still think of all of you as you were at 17, not tired or bent or middle-aged. I live in West Hartford, Conn., where I have mostly been since graduating from college. I have three boys, ages 14, 16 and 52.”

His kids are away at college — one a junior at Villanova, one a sophomore at Maryland and the third is a freshman at Miami University of Ohio. They recently sold the house and moved to a condo in Baltimore City. Justine Burt just moved across the San Francisco Bay to Palo Alto; her son is now in the eighth grade and is organizing his school’s robotics team. Alice Burton writes, “My youngest, Claire, is starting kindergarten and her sister Kate is in second grade.” Kirsten Newcombe Shilling has been working in interior design for almost 20 years, mostly around Boston.

gelovalle@gmail.com This summer, Carrie Suhr Leovy, husband John and their two boys left Chicago and moved to Ellicott City. Carrie wrote, “It’s great to be back and to be able to track down favorite Friends alums in Baltimore.” Although there may not have been even the slightest correlation at all between Carrie’s return and the Orioles winning the AL East for the first time since 1997, both events are certainly big wins for the Baltimore area. Farther away from North Charles Street, Wel Leimbach deserves congratulations. “I have been promoted to Colonel of Marines. I know this comes as a great shock to all of you who know me, but rest assured national security will not be adversely affected ... too much.” Wel and Katie (RPCS ’90) still enjoy raising Morgan, 10, and McAlister, 6, in Fredericksburg, Va. They “welcome folks to swing by for a visit if they ever want a tour of the great history in the area” with several key battlefields from the Civil War as well as the childhood home of George Washington at Ferry Farm as highlights. I join Wel in signing off and wishing, “Best to all!”

1992 David Knowles knowlesdavid@gmail.com If Matt Miller hadn’t worn his Orioles hat, Shell Blevins might not have spotted him in a restaurant in Venice, Calif. over Memorial Day weekend. It was the first time they’d seen each other since graduation. File that one under, “What are the odds?” In other West Coast news, it has been a lot of fun to see the success that Shawn Peterson is having in his acting career. Recently he’s had roles in the TV show “Hot in Cleveland” as well as films “The Host” and “The Starving Games,” and he has appeared in national TV commercials, including one for McDonald’s. Mark Counselman was happy to see, in his words, “the elusive Dan Motz ’95” on campus recently. Dan was planning for his upcoming 20-year Reunion. It was Mark’s first time on campus in many years, and he enjoyed seeing all the new buildings. He still works for RCM&D in Towson and lives in the Oakenshaw neighborhood in Baltimore City with his wife Suzie and sons Matthew, 8, Connor, 6, and Patrick, 4. Arsh Mirmiran and Carla Perry Paisley hadn’t see each other for years but then ran into each other twice in one month — once during a preseason Ravens game, where Carla was celebrating her son’s birthday. Dan Mannes became a dad for the third time on July 5, 2014, when son Henry Benjamin was born. He still manages to drive from the Philadelphiaarea to most Ravens’ home games, where he sits “in the nosebleed seats.” I’d like to know more about how he negotiated that arrangement with his

wife. Shana Ketron-Yacht traded the wine business for the insurance industry about five years ago. She and her husband Michael live downtown in Canton. They enjoy Baltimore, but the winters might drive them back to California in a few years. She keeps in touch with a lot of classmates, including Sasha Klevytska, Erin Koch, Franny Legge and Maré Hieronimus. Maré is a multimedia dance artist and yoga and somatic movement teacher living in Brooklyn, N.Y. She says to let her know if you’re ever in the area. Dr. John Morrow also lives in NYC, where he’s doing cardiology research at Columbia University Medical School. He and his wife Bo Young Lee have a daughter, Annabelle, 3½, who started preschool this year. Jonathan Greenberg is another classmate who is doing things that are way over my head. He’s an assistant professor of geography and geographic information science at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign, where he’s using satellites to track forest responses to climate change. Ilse Levin has been living in Silver Spring for the past five years. This fall, she started working as a hospitalist and intensivist at Laurel Hospital, working nights so she can spend more time with her family. Her son Alistair, 4, attends preschool, and her husband Seth is a doctor in the Navy, working with the Marine Corps Wounded Warriors. She stays in touch with Lija Hogan and Claudia Marbaix Scheidle and talks to Sunee Claud daily. Last summer their families went on vacation together in Cape Cod. Dianne Shelton Hull lives in Swarthmore, Pa., with her husband Corey, son Brent and daughter Charlotte. Much of her time is

spent chauffeuring the kids around to their various activities, but she also works as the assistant director of the post-baccalaureate premedical program at Bryn Mawr College. Their motto is, “It’s Never too Late to Become a Doctor!” so if any Friends alums are looking to make a major career change, Dianne wants to hear from you. She has really enjoyed reconnecting with classmates through Facebook. Jamie Skeen Schumann-Dahlberg became a homeowner for the first time and moved into her new house in Portland, Ore., in September. Kate Gust has her hands full with daughters Clementine, 8, Penelope, 5, and Hazel, born July 23, 2014, and stepson Jae Jin, 5. She lives in Baltimore and has an acupuncture practice in Towson. Chrisie Santoni is an award-winning songwriter and full-time musician residing in Lancaster, Pa. Her song “Deluxe” is featured in the Emmy-nominated HBO documentary “Paycheck to Paycheck: The Life and Times of Katrina Gilbert,” which premiered in March. Besides singing, playing guitar and writing the songs for her duo “The Billies,” Chrisie writes the music for and runs Dancing Bears Music, a music-and-movement program for children ages 6 weeks to 4 years. Two of her children’s songs, “Clams in the Mud” and “On the Farm,” can be heard on Sirius XM’s Kid’s Place Live. She’s an avid runner, yoga enthusiast and is a firm believer that a

lot of butter is the key to good cooking and baking. Check out her website: ChrisieSantoni.com. Elizabeth Shaum Delfosse lives in Baltimore with her husband Erik, son Aidan, 11, daughter Gwyneth, 7, and a “menagerie of animals.” She and Erik celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary in October. She’s back in school pursuing a nursing degree and is awaiting acceptance into the University of Maryland’s nursing program for the spring. She’s still close friends with Rebecca Rossello, who lives in Baltimore with her husband Mat Lane and their two kids, Ana ’21, 11, and Nicholas ’27, 5, and is teaching voice at Friends, among other places. They try to get together regularly and let their two older children “plan the takeover of the known world.” Wendy and I had quite a moment in late August when we watched our older daughter Kaitlyn board the school bus for the first time and set out for her first day of kindergarten. Where have the last five years gone? Or the last 22 years, for that matter! We’re missing about 20 people from our class Facebook group, so please let me know if you want to join.


CLASS NOTES

1993 Carrie Mallonee Huebner carolinemallonee@gmail.com Hello Class of 1993! We are spread out these days, and it’s been a pleasure to hear from several corners of the country this fall. Chris Baughman writes that all is well in San Diego. “Sam just started kindergarten at my school, High Tech Middle Media Arts, where I teach humanities in the sixth grade, so I get to watch him playing out of my class windows. I just celebrated my 12th anniversary with Holly, who is still with United Way of San Diego County.” Dana Oppenheim Chodos is also living in San Diego. She and her husband Marc had a baby in March, Jacob Samuel. Their son Noah started kindergarten this year, and daughter Sarah is loving preschool. She writes that Marc’s practice keeps him busy, and “the kids keep me on my toes!” Pam Sacks Ouaou writes from Florida: “My husband and I stay busy with a neuropsychology practice in Naples, Fla., that we opened in 2008. In our free time we are renovating an old house by the Gulf of Mexico and love to travel as much as possible with our son Benjamin, 11.” Luke Davis writes from his home on Long Island: “All is well here! I’m working on a fun new project and still working at Student Exchange. Check out East Coast Kubb, the lawn game sweeping the nation!” Greg Seidman wrote to me on his 10th wedding anniversary to report that he and his family have moved in with his dad into the house he grew up in Columbia. As for yours truly, I am living in Buffalo with my husband and our two

sons. The Buffalo Chamber Players has just named me composer-in-residence, and I am thrilled that more of my music will be performed in the city where I live. The Baltimore Choral Arts Society will be performing a piece of mine on its Christmas concert this year, so I’m excited to reconnect with a Baltimore audience as well.

1994 Rich Santos richie1124@gmail.com Greetings to Friends alumni and family! My pal Steve Peterson has passed the Class Notes baton back to me. The poor guy finally burned out. Many of you don’t know what it takes to produce this written piece on tight deadlines with angry Development Office people breathing down our necks (ha, just kidding, Amy). In the end, the pressure just got to Steve. Doing this job on top of another job with daily responsibilities and a wife as of this past summer (there’s an actual update for you) was too much. At this point, he’s playing basketball out back with Chief and Jack Nicholson. I wish him the best — he’ll be back! So, let’s get started. I must say at the top I was lucky to see many 1994 alums at the 20th Reunion and a very special wedding I attended in May — more on that later in the “P” section. I saw Sean Armstrong at the Reunion in May and he is doing great. We reminisced about many stupid things we said in the hallway and relived tactics we had for antagonizing people while we were in eighth grade. And …

DANA OPPENHEIM CHODOS ’93’s children, Sarah, Jacob and Noah

we didn’t tell each other what we are doing at this point in our lives, but discussed that how stupid we used to be was much more fun. Ryan “Blades” Bader has moved to Richmond, Va., with his wife who I used to work with in NYC. I remember those days when Bader used to ask me about her: “Dude, you gotta get me a date …” Finally, I realized he was serious and set them up. I did it just to get him off my back — I once had 14 missed Bader calls on my phone in the span of 25 minutes. But he took it way too far: not only did he marry Austin Scott Bader, but the two have a beautiful baby boy, Jack. Jack Bader is much like his dad so far in his short life — a bit gruff, angry at the world, but loveable. Little did I know that, in 1992 while letting Bader cheat off me in Latin, I’d be weirdly responsible for him having children. I’ve seen Celia Barss a few times this year and she’s doing well, living in Georgia as an organic farmer. She sells her wares at farmers’ markets and to restaurants. She unfortunately is one of those people who gets peppered with questions from me about how to keep basil fresh (in the fridge or out of the fridge?) for a week … and is on the business end of my jealousy for not having to deal with Microsoft Office, copy machines, bosses and phrases like “circle back” and “let’s take this offline.” Matt Bonds is living in Boston and doing great work as a board member of PIVOT (pivotworks.org), which works to create a model system of universal access to quality health care for Madagascar. Liz Bowman and Sue Chen, by virtue of their juxtaposition in the class roster due to alphabetical order and the fact that I saw them both at Reunion and forgot what they are doing, get a joint update: Liz is living in Boston and Sue is living in California. Maybe I never asked what they were doing … but both are doing great! Kim Stude Dare is living in Rehoboth Beach part of the year, and Puerto Rico the other part of the year, also doing things that make me jealous — such as not dealing with status meetings and phrases like “Happy Friday.” She manages a restaurant in Rehoboth. Brandon Elhai was at the Reunion, and he is doing well. Andrew Geison and I just got finished with a massive email argument over the Ravens that included “see my responses in red.” I see him often and visited his apartment near the campus of Monmouth University, where he is the

assistant lacrosse coach. When spring rolls around, if you’d like to hit the Jersey Shore and catch a game, look him up. Maybe you’ll even get a free Monmouth LAX shirt like I did. Brian Hamilton (Ham) and I are currently engaged in a huge email tag game of trying to meet up in NYC. He lives in Philly but gets up to NYC often, and we will get together at some point, and I will ask what he’s doing. He just had his third child (congratulations — play date with curmudgeonly Jack Bader?). Due to my awesome digital stalking skills, I was able to glean from Ham’s daqri.com email domain that he’s working at Daqri Smart Helmet — looks like it’s a very sophisticated industrial safety helmet. What Ham does for them, however, I do not know. Lauren Hubbard Johnson (another of my fixups — she married my buddy from college, Bird) has been prolific this past summer. I’ve seen her at multiple venues. Dr. James Johnston is living in Maine and practicing orthopedic surgery. He has enriched me with such party pleasers as telling me I really need to get moving and have children because I’m getting old, and cell phone pictures of surgical procedures. Either way, I miss him and I’m glad his lovely wife and two beautiful children are doing great. Amy Grimm McEvoy attended Reunion and she was in great spirits. It was wonderful to see her. Adam Meister also attended Reunion, and I talked to him a lot and simply came away with no update. Terrible on my part, but that was before Steve Peterson went off the deep end, so I really wasn’t mining life details about everyone. Cara Perkins Montague is living in Vermont and her little baby (well, was once a little baby) is up and running around. She’s doing very well and gave a wonderful speech at a certain person’s wedding. Daryn Nakhuda flew all the way back to Baltimore from Seattle for Reunion. He gets the Traveler Award: person who showed up from farthest-away place. (Deep breath). OK. So, about a year ago, I received a call from Myles Perkins’ girlfriend Christina. She sounded very nervous on the other line, and for some reason her words seemed almost rehearsed. Finally she got to it: “I wanted to know if I have your permission to marry Myles.” I couldn’t answer immediately. My heart fluttered and sank all at once. After about a week of crying, reminiscing and heavy

drinking, I finally decided to let Myles go. The result was their Memorial Day weekend wedding on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It was a lovely Quaker ceremony and wonderful party full of amazing people (Wayne Ries — Justin Ries’ dad — is an amazing dancer). I’m very happy for Myles, and his wife is amazing. Currently, he’s working with his mom, splitting time between Boston and Baltimore doing (35 years of knowing this family and I’m still not sure) corporate real estate? Steve Peterson got married as well! I see him quite often at social functions in Baltimore. Kathy Pretl also showed up at Reunion and I enjoyed connecting with her. She’s doing well. I see Dan Ray quite often at various events, and he dominated the Reunion as well. John Renner is doing corporate real estate; I saw him at Reunion and at Myles’ wedding, where Justin Ries, like his dad, kicked it pretty hard on the dance floor. I am lucky enough to speak with him from time to time over email. I believe he’s doing something way outside the realm of my brain power, like measuring carbon levels in the ocean to determine effects (I can’t even decide if this should be “affect” or “effect” and he’s measuring carbon levels) on the environment. I see Lou Rouse a lot as he is a fellow Brooklyn resident and, like Lauren Hubbard, also prolific at Friend School functions. Lou recently was photographing a boutique fashion shop’s online catalog. He’s doing photography in lots of different places, and I have taken to being his wing man out on the town. Needless to say, that is not helping him much. I saw Ali Smith and his brother Atman ’96 at our Reunion and they are doing some amazing work in Baltimore through their nonprofit, Holistic Life Foundation. It was great to see them and catch up. Mike Stringer was at Friends under the tent as well and also at Ravens stadium as a Bader guest this fall when I was at a game. However, Bader’s cell phone was only at 6 percent at the start of the game and we went “Old Man,” saying it was too complicated to meet up at halftime in light of that development. I hope to see Stringer soon. Mike Temchine was at Reunion and documenting the whole thing through his camera lens. For some reason, I was too intimidated to approach him (don’t worry, I’m in counseling), and I didn’t get a chance to talk to him. Hopefully, the

shots he took can surface somewhere so we can relive the wonderful event. Steve Travieso is also in the prolific bucket. He’s at many events, and he dominated Reunion just like my next update: Ms. Rashawnda Ungerer. She was there with her husband and daughter and let me know that she self-published a novel! Titled “The Hard Way,” it’s on Amazon, and it looks pretty intense. It was great to catch up with her. Adelle Waldman was there, too, and she has written a follow-up to her book “The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P.,” which was named a “best book of the year” by “The New Yorker,” NPR, Slate, “The Economist,” “The New Republic,” Bookforum, The Daily Beast, “National Journal,” “Cosmopolitan” and “Elle.” Her latest book is titled, “New Year’s: Nathaniel P. as Seen Through the Eyes of His Friend Aurit.” Look it up, get it! Her husband is awesome. So, last update — I’m still in marketing, working at AXA Financial in NYC and writing dating stuff on the SheKnows blog. I did move in with my girlfriend (baby steps, Dr. Johnston), and it’s been great, although the first night there — while lying on the couch — I did feel eyes on me. It was the first time I felt that since my mom did it to me in high school when I was supposed to be doing homework. Generally, it’s tough to be my normal unproductive self in that apartment now. Also, I’m learning that I must listen more and can’t blurt things out because it can be “hurtful.”

Please feel free to email me any news, big or small, throughout the year! This go-round, the news is good, and the news is … weddings and babies! Leading off our column, Vanessa Harbin Sacks reports, “2014 has been a good year so far. I got a promotion in January to senior research analyst at Child Trends, a nonprofit research institute, and married my boyfriend Dan in February. The Friends School contingent represented — in the photo booth picture and on the dance floor.” I was lucky enough to be included in the festivities, and I can attest it was a wonderful and moving celebration filled with love and laughter. Also in the newlywed department, Melissa Ciesla sent in a wonderful update, “Charla Platt-Doble married John DeLacy on September 20 at his family’s farm in Gettysburg, Pa., and Pete Levin

officiated! Rida D’Agostino, Katarina Carlin, Kristana Carlin ’00, Amit Shashidharan and I rounded out the Friends Schoolers. I was their wedding photographer. It was a beautiful day, with the reception under a tent while the sun set. A food truck provided yummy crab cakes and mac and cheese, and friends of the family tended bar. Tons of dancing and fun. My boyfriend Mark and I got engaged Christmas morning 2013 and will be married May 31, 2015 at The Mansion at Valley Country Club. We have showers planned in Ohio and Baltimore over the holidays.

If I am not mistaken, in addition to officiating Charla’s wedding, Pete Levin celebrated a wedding of his own this past spring, although he did not write in so I guess you will have to press him for the details. On to the babies … boy, has our class been busy: Sarah Melville writes, “Adam and I are thrilled to announce that we welcomed our second son, Alexander Michael Molaver, on September 1, 2014. So far, he’s a calm little guy and is growing fast. His big brother Daniel is doing well and enjoys ‘teaching’ Alex how to play baseball (Go Os!), blow bubbles and play fetch with the dogs.” Ellen Morrow and her husband Joe welcomed their first child, daughter Zinnia Marie, on May 10, 2014. The family moved to Salt Lake City in July, where Ellen and Joe, both doctors, are working at the University of Utah. Christina Counselman Patrick shares that she is still living in Portland, Maine. She recently started a new job at Bates College designing and launching an internship program. In August, Christina, Owen and big brother Henry, 2, welcomed Miles Crocker Patrick into the family. I had the pleasure of seeing Abby Owen Perry and family twice recently — once on the East Coast for a wonderful summer barbeque and once in my neck of the woods, as Abby’s husband James coached the Princeton Tigers football team in their season opener at the University of San Diego. Abby, James, and big brothers Sam and Nate welcomed a baby girl at the end of April, Rosemary Scott Perry. Rosie is adorable, happy and already a football fan. My daughter Alexandra is smitten with her, as is everyone who

meets her. Abby continues to work in college counseling at the Princeton Day School. Last, but definitely not least, down in New Orleans Rebecca Leonard McWilliams, Thomas and big brother Jack welcomed a little Southern belle in July — Lida Katherine McWilliams. She is one adorable and very lucky, baby girl!

Children’s National Medical Center. Her son Aiden is 18 months old “with tons of energy!” Jamie Hubbard tells us that he enjoyed seeing many old friends who came to support the Malin family at the successful “Magic of Mike” fundraiser held in September at the Pier 5 Hotel. He reports that the Hubbard family is doing well. Jamie’s sister Lauren Hubbard Johnson ’94 and husband Mike’s kids Lily and Zach “are getting huge!” His other sister Sara Hubbard ’96 and husband Greg’s daughter Ella recently celebrated her first birthday. Jamie’s biggest news is that he has opened his own bar in Fells Point. “Lobo has been a lot of work, but it is great to finally open my own place. We are trying to do something just a little bit different down here in Fells Point, and it seems that we are being well received in the neighborhood. We have been open since July and are picking up steam heading into the holiday season.” Lobo also earned great reviews in “The Baltimore Sun.”

Justine Alger Forrester jmforrester1@gmail.com Hello, friends! We have a few exciting developments to share with you this time around. Kim Hamilton Wendel and her husband Tom had a beautiful baby girl, Elle Isadora Wendel, born on March 26, 2014. Coincidentally, I hear her brothers Brian ’94 and Mark ’03 also welcomed babies into their families this spring. Such an exciting time for the Hamilton family! Tamara Clark wrote to share that she has a new job. “After teaching for 11 years, I’ve transitioned into administration. I am the preschool program coordinator at the Parent Infant Center in West Philadelphia, a highquality, NAEYC-accredited, community-based child care center.” Tamara continues to present regionally and nationally at early childhood education conferences on learning environments, the Reggio Emilia approach to preschool and primary education, diversity and technology. She adds, “It is wonderful to be able to do something that I know makes a difference in the world!” Laura Caplan Szabo is still living and working in D.C., where she is a social worker practicing family therapy on the psychiatric unit at

Congrats to Vance Tucker, whose feature screenplay “Help! I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com,” was awarded the bronze medal for comedy screenplay in the PAGE International Screenwriting Awards competition. Look for his name in lights at the Senator Theatre soon! Sources tell me that Vance, James Yolles and Ana Muñoz, along with some other Friends alums, watch the Ravens together in New York from time

to time. Ana is a fellow in public interest and constitutional law at Gibbons, a top-ranked law firm, where she works in criminal justice with Ben Yaster ’01. James recently joined Risa Heller Communications, a strategic communications and public affairs consulting firm in Manhattan. Craig Hollander is teaching American history at Princeton, and he and his wife Jeni are enjoying life with their daughter Lydia. My husband Rob Travieso ’97 and I ran into Galen Haggerty at Wrigley Field in August as the Orioles faced the Cubs, and we cheered on the birds at Camden Yards with Brian Valle ’99, Garrett Smith ’97 and Ed Chen ’97. Hope everyone is doing well, and looking forward to celebrating our 15-year(!) Reunion in May.

So far, my boyfriend Zach and I love our new neighborhood to pieces. Workwise, I’m freelancing for Emeco, a chair manufacturer based out of Pennsylvania with a heavy focus on heritage-quality products from eco-friendly materials. I spent the latter half of the Orioles season missing Katie Minton’s presence at Camden Yards since she moved to New York this past August to start Columbia Law School. But she tells me not to worry — she’s already found the official NYC Orioles/Ravens fan bar so that she doesn’t miss a game! Another person I’m missing seeing

around town is Robert Janey, who moved to Shijiazhuang, China to teach English as a second language at the Worlin International Town School, about an hour-and-a-half north of a Beijing. Robert says he misses his Baltimore students like crazy, but he’s really enjoying all of the new experiences in China. It turns out several ’06ers are also living outside the U.S.: Brigitte Brown is living in Melbourne, Australia and working for Deloitte; Natalie West recently moved to Paris to start her master’s in international development at Sciences Po (l’Institut d’études politiques de Paris); Josh Thomas has been living in Hong Kong for the past several years, where he works in advertising. He enjoys traveling and has visited Seoul, Shanghai and Hanoi in the past year; Carly Flint is not quite as far away, living in Tulsa, Okla., where she teaches preschool and runs an arts camp that she started called InsideOUT! Aly Stern is now a registered nurse working in the Level II neonatal intensive care unit at the Medical University of South Carolina. She loves living in the Charleston, S.C.-area where she went to school. A very exciting update came in from Abe Davis, who is

working on his Ph.D. at MIT. In the past few months, his research has gotten a lot of media attention, including in the “Washington Post,” “Time,” “Slate,” “Wired,” and “BusinessWeek” and on CNN and EngageNet. He’s also been on four NPR shows including “All Things Considered” and “Science Friday,” and he’s been on BBC radio, Al Jazeera and a several other international news outlets. Check out our class Facebook page (look up “Friends School ’06”), where I’ve posted the links to the “Post” article, the NPR bit and Abe’s own YouTube channel. There are still quite a few alums living in our hometown: Jeb Cook finished law school, took the bar exam and is working at Venable LLP in Baltimore; Kaitlin Boswell and her boyfriend Will Rogers have been renovating an old rowhome in Fells Point over the past year and were finally able to move in this past July. She is working as a teacher in Chevy Chase. Also local is Miriam Vishniac, who lives in D.C., where she’s at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law working in its election protection program. The committee manages a nationwide program that participates in litigation to ensure that voting rights are

protected, runs a nationwide call-in program for reporting issues leading up to and during elections and gives onthe-ground trainings to those who help keep track of changes in voting laws. In addition, Miriam is pursuing a master’s in public policy, likely focusing in civil rights and gender equality. Ouranitsa Abbas lives in downtown Baltimore’s Mt. Vernon neighborhood and works at the Esperanza Center as a pro bono coordinator within their Immigration legal services department. She helps people become U.S. citizens and finds pro bono attorneys to represent kids that have been abandoned, abused or neglected and to get them on a path to citizenship. In the meantime, she’s applying for her Board of Immigration Appeals Accreditation, which will allow her to be everything an immigration attorney is in the eyes of the immigration system. We’ve had some ’06 wedding bells ringing recently: Phil Bartolini married Danica Rogers on August 31, 2014, with Joey Whitney as a groomsman. Drew Black, Josh Waranch, Patrick Sissman, Tommy Adolph and David Ray all attended. He met Danica in their first year of college, and they starting dating a year later. Alice Reville Rigert married Joe Rigert on June 28, 2014 at Grey Rock Mansion in Baltimore, with Jackie Reed as her maid of honor. Alice and Joe met at Guilford College and now live in Durham, N.C. David Weinman just returned from his honeymoon in Italy. When he’s not enjoying newlywed life, he’s is working in the busiest firehouse in Philadelphia, four blocks from their new home. But the coolest thing? Dave gets to drive the back of the ladder truck! I loved hearing from everyone. It makes me proud to know that you guys are out there traveling, running your own programs, advocating for others, starting families, working on farms, fighting fires, teaching children, making headlines, getting degrees and generally being awesome.

2008 Jasmine Powe jasmine.powe@gmail.com Lily Jacobs married Jonathan GressWright on August 3, 2014 at her parents’ house in Baltimore. The couple had a short honeymoon in the Adirondacks and then returned to their home in Silver Spring in time for her to wrap up

her job with the American Association of State Colleges and Universities and begin the first semester of a Master of Library Science, with a focus on archives, at the University of Maryland, College Park. After spending a year in St. Louis, Mo., Nick Rodricks has been living in Baltimore for the past year. This past May, he started a new job working for Ecotone, Inc. in Bel Air, working in stream and wetland restoration. In July, he traveled to Denver to represent France at the World Lacrosse Championships. To make things even crazier, Nick is now the owner of a small rowhome in Remington that he will simply call a “fixer-upper.” (If anyone has experience with home restoration, please give him a call.) And, last but not least, the start of the year brought the creation of November Project Baltimore, a free grassroots fitness movement that has likely taken over your Facebook newsfeed. With the help of some other Friends School grads and a wonderful community in Baltimore, November Project workouts have now reached over 100 participants and are consistently growing. Says Nick, “If you like things like joy, hugs and fitness come join us any Wednesday or Friday.” Daniel Feinberg completed his M.S. in Florida and moved to Seattle to pursue a Ph.D. at the University of Washington’s School of Environmental and Forest Sciences. He is still playing music and recently made it to iTunes, Spotify and Google Play. He enjoyed catching up with other Friends alums in Baltimore this past summer. Elaine Kwon also moved to Seattle, Wash., where, after working in LA for two years in strategy and operations management, she has begun working at Amazon on its fashion team, where her longtime obsession with online shopping is now her full-time job. If you have any favorite jewelry pieces or watches that you want to see at a great price, send her an email at ekwon@amazon.com and feel free to share ideas. If you’re in the Seattle area, please reach out. She is overdue for a hang-out with fellow ’08 alum and new-Seattlite Daniel Feinberg! Amy Sieck went to UConn and graduated in 2012 with a Bachelor of Music concentrating on vocal performance. She still lives in Connecticut and has been working for a liquor distributor. Ray DeSmit married Kahla Woodling on September 27, 2014. They both share a love of history and education. It was a small wedding with family and

He is also working in the university’s Office of Multi-ethnic Education, where he mentors undergraduate students in the College Success Scholars Program. When Jamal isn’t working or interning he can be found playing club basketball or giving tours around campus. Alex Brooks is spending his free time writing and illustrating a “futuristic superhero dystopian” graphic novel series. For more information on his series, you can like him on “Facebook” under the name A.A Brooks or check out his website, aabrooks19.wordpress.com. As for yours truly, I am spending my sophomore year at the University of Maryland as a CARE to Stop Violence peer educator, where I am teaching my fellow students about sexual violence, relationship violence, stalking and bystander intervention. I am also planning an alternative break experience to Washington, D.C. this spring, during which a group of 16 of my fellow Maryland students will focus on human-trafficking education and direct service. I am also training to be a

member of the Sexual Misconduct Review Committee, which is a result of the University of Maryland’s new Title IX office. Our class is certainly keeping busy and doing some really great things. Feel free to message me about your adventures any times of the year at samanthaenokian@yahoo.com.

In the November issue of TRIBELAXUpdate, Abby Corkum, William and Mary midfield/attacker, wrote, “Coming from a Quaker school back in my hometown of Baltimore, it was comforting to know that I was entering a new community that cherishes the same values of respect, integrity, simplicity and service. I couldn’t have ended up at a better place.”
