Compiled by Alexandra Zissu: “Anna Crafton Walker reports that Wyatt Oliver Crafton Walker was born in September 2009. Get on Facebook and “friend” Anna! Wyatt’s pictures are to die for. If you’re not already on Facebook, you’re missing out on more than Wyatt. Many of our graduating class are ‘friends’; and still others who didn’t graduate with us, but were with us over the years, have found each other. It’s a great way to have a virtual reunion, to keep tabs on people in the classes above us and below us, and to get news from Friends. Join us. As for me, my daughter is now 4 and as hilarious as ever. She’s in nursery school with several children of Friends alumni. Very sweet. My second book, The Conscious Kitchen: The New Way to Buy and Cook Food —to Protect the Earth, Improve Your Health, and Eat Deliciously comes out March 2. I’m currently fast at work on my third and fourth books, which will be out in 2011, one with Seventh Generation and the other with Fleisher’s Grassfed and Organic Meats. Life is full and busy. I recently saw Jessica “Jess” Wapner and hope to see more of her soon. I also saw Aundrea Fares yelling on the HBO show, Bored To Death , a few months back. Very fun sighting! Write me/ friend me/email me and let me know what you’re up to.”

Sami Liebman is busy as a reporter at NY1 and is covering upcoming Fashion Week. Stephanie Davis Hazelkorn and her husband Todd Hazelkorn welcomed their first child, Eve, in May 2009.

Jessie Chaffee reports that she is teaching at The Cathedral School of St. John the Divine as well as The City College of New York, where she is completing an MFA in Creative Writing. Dave Bowers writes: “My beautiful wife Mary and I were married June 20, 2009...I know...I know...it has taken me a little while to post this message. I feel like I have just submitted late homework to Ms. Moustakis. The wedding ceremony was quite intimate, just our immediate families. The ceremony took place in our new home in the Flatiron section of Manhattan, just a few blocks from Friends. We went on honeymoon in Italy and then came back and threw two massive parties (one in downtown Manhattan; one in Columbia, South Carolina, where Mary is from) to celebrate with our friends and extended families.
