The House System, created in 2007, provides Upper School students with a smaller community in which to lead, participate, and collaborate across grade levels under one House Head. Houses are named for important GA historical figures – Alcott-Day, Galloway, Kershaw, Osbourn, Roberts, Truesdell, and Washington – and informal, fun competitions throughout the year earn points for the Competition Cup. Activities include intellectual, spirited, and athletic events, culminating at House Olympics at the end of the year. A series of fun, zany games, including, but not limited to, Chicken Baseball, Bladder Ball, and the muchanticipated pie eating contest, are taken on with pride and gusto. In fact, this year there were...

Last May, we celebrated a first in the 260-year history of Germantown Academy. Our Belfry Club, the nation’s oldest continuously running high school theatre organization, had just secured the Cappies Award for Best Play (think Academy Award for regional high schools) for their production of Neil Simon’s Rumors. Competing against dozens of area public and independent schools, Director K. Richardson and her team of devoted actors and stage crew captured the top prize in an extraordinarily competitive and talented field. In acknowledgement and celebration of this special victory, I invited the cast and crew to participate in a time-honored GA tradition typically reserved for championship-winning athletic teams: the ringing of the Belfry bell. Needless to say, our thespians rose to the occasion and grabbed the unwieldy, scratchy rope with gusto, and the chimes of their triumph resonated around Connor Quad just as loudly as when our girls clinched the PAISSA and Inter-Ac basketball and spring track championships and the Inter-Ac field hockey title.

Our students excel in so many areas in addition to the classroom, and watching them engage in these passions remains one of the most inspiring facets of my work. Whether I’m yelling at the screen of my computer while live streaming our robotics team as they compete at the world championships in Kentucky or trying not to cause a scene while cheering on a swim relay team at Easterns, seeing our Patriots fight their hardest as all of their training comes to a culmination leaves me mostly breathless and perpetually in awe. Of course one of the sweetest elements of these battles is bearing witness to the life-long friendships being forged along the way, not Work Hard & only among the students, but also between the students and Embrace Challenge the faculty working right alongside them. Many of a school’s Connect to Demonstrate the World Resilience & indelible moments coalesce in the hard-fought victories and Beyond GA Perseverance agonizing defeats, and I am proud to watch these opportunities expand as our students grow in athletics, arts, Take Listen Well & Academic Communicate Risks debate, and relative newcomers like computer science and Thoughtfully robotics. When you consider GA’s definition of student engagement in the classroom, there is no doubt that every one Develop of these traits applies to and is deeply honed in our Are Curious Critical & Ask Thinking Questions extracurricular activities as well.

CELEBRATING

125 YEARS

OF THE BELFRY CLUB

Producing confidence and camaraderie since 1894

Since its humble start, Germantown Academy’s Belfry Club, the oldest, continuously operating high school dramatic club in the country, has seen 22 presidents in the White House, made it through the Great Depression, endured two world wars, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, enjoyed the economic growth of the 1950s, witnessed the Apollo 11 Lunar Landing Mission, experienced all of the wild and turbulent 60s and 70s, survived the fashion of the 80s and the irony of the 90s, and now, is almost two decades into the 21st century. And, with each passing year, the Belfry Club continues to captivate and mesmerize the GA community, just as it did with its debut performance 125 years ago.

“GA’s award-winning Belfry Club is a significant point of pride for the Academy, not only for the impressiveness of its record-setting quasquicentennial, but even more so for its high-quality, cuttingedge, stellar legacy of performances,” said Head of School Rich

Schellhas. “Our stage functions like the best of classrooms; our Belfry Club like the most successful of teams. As our actors and crew grow over the course of each production, I stand in awe of their development as artists and as human beings. Deeply engaged in their craft, our thespians epitomize the ‘confident’ and ‘collaborative’ tenets of our mission—all while entertaining captivated audiences and building life-long friendships. They make us laugh, they make us cry, and they inspire us. Whether they depart for bigger stages after graduation or experience the culmination of their theater experiences here at GA, our Belfry members remain part of a distinguished part of Patriot history.”

The Belfry Club was born in the attic of the original schoolhouse in Germantown and made fans right from the beginning. The April 1894 edition of The Academy Monthly notes that the “large audience filled every seat and no small portion of the aisles” at the

Married Life – The First Performance of the Germantown Academy Dramatic Club An excerpt from the original April 1894 edition (Vol. X, No. 7) of The Academy Monthly Thursday, April 12, 1894 was a red letter day for the Academy’s young dramatic club, for it saw the successful culmination of many days of work and witnessed the triumph over difficulties and discouragements not a few. Thanks to the kind help of some of the school’s many friends, Workingmen’s Hall was tastefully decorated with red, black and blue, and the various athletic symbols and trophies, and before the curtain rose a large audience filled every seat and no small portion of the aisles. After a well-played selection by the Academy Orchestra, the curtain went up for the first act amid a buzz of expectation from the eager spectators, who were filled with curiosity to see what fair ladies and gentlemen the Academy could muster.

To judge from the frequent applause and laughter which continued through the four acts, they were not particularly disappointed in the realization of this curiosity. The play continued smoothly from the opening scene, and the last one closed without any appreciable slip or hitch, greatly to the relief of the amateurs, who felt little confidence in their own powers.

The praise due the boys for the success of the whole play should only be exceeded by that due Mr. Frank Palmer for the way in which he moulded and developed the rawest material. Not one of the ten characters had acted before, and yet they exhibited almost the nerve of experienced actors.

The stagings and costuming were all good, some of the ladies’ dresses being marvels of taste and art, while make-ups, though a little too decided, were generally very good.

It only remains to thank the Academy Orchestra for the fine music rendered between the acts, and to thank the audience for its hearty enthusiasm, to which much of the snap of the lay was due, as well as to congratulate the Athletic Association on the sudden expansion of its exchequer.

Those who have worked so hard for the past two months could have no better reward than the highly satisfactory results of their work. The pride of the Academy is in them.

Its thanks and hearty appreciation are theirs.

Germantown Workingmen’s Club on Chelten Avenue for The Married Life, the first show in Belfry’s history. The show was directed by Frank J. Palmer 1885 and, like many performances, didn’t come without its challenges as a few key members of the cast fell ill and couldn’t participate, but the Belfry Club persevered. Since then, it has taken on just about every type of production, from minimalist avant-garde black box productions to big rock concert-like musicals, and just about everything in between.

THEN THERE WERE GIRLS

GA’s drama club has grown into one of the most popular and respected clubs on campus. Its fall and winter productions are much anticipated by the GA community, and its work has been well received by the greater Philadelphia theater community.

In recent years, Belfry has won big-time awards at the

In the early years of the Belfry Club, it was not uncommon for male cast members to play the part of female roles. That all changed in 1962-63 when Upper School teacher Walter Hoesel, who was serving as the Belfry Club director that year, suggested the club take on more serious dramas, which would require actual female actresses. The 1963 Ye Primer captured the debate:

“TheYankee King” 1938

Greater Philadelphia CAPPIES (Critics and Awards Program for High School Students) Gala and the Philadelphia Independence Awards. It was named the “Best Theater Program” by Philadelphia Magazine.

The Belfry Club is the perfect reflection of GA, a blend of tradition and innovation. From the earliest aficionados to today’s aspiring professionals, Belfry has provided a home to those who love the arts. The passion and camaraderie that coalesces in the run up to a show pours out from the stage to enrich the entire community. Every time the students and faculty of the Belfry Club rehearse or perform, they are living the GA mission with their independence, confidence, and collaboration. By remembering its origins and celebrating the current moment, there is no doubt that the Belfry will have a bright future.

“Belfry is an amazing tradition with deep historical roots, but it remains as fresh and as vibrant a part of the community as it did in the pioneer days of the club 125 years ago,” said Dr. Mark Rabuck ’86, a former Belfry Club actor and director who teaches Upper School History and serves as GA’s archivist.

“After an impassioned discussion, we at last put aside such pleasant memories as George Bihn ’63 as blond and domineering Myrtle Keller in The Male Animal and Bob Waterhouse ’63 as Gallic and garrulous Catherina Botal in The ManWho Married a DumbWife, sent a rush order to Stevens School, and took on the venture with enthusiasm. The play was Karel Capek’s R.U.R.”

Thanks to GA’s move to Fort Washington to become a PreK-12 coed school, girls became a mainstay in the Belfry Club. In 1966, the drama club’s production of Agatha Christie’s murder mystery Witness for the Prosecution was the school’s first performance that featured both male and female GA students.

“The play was one of the most ambitious productions ever undertaken by the club in its 73-year history, for not only was it challenging to the 24-member cast, but also to the stage crew, as the sets had to be changed completely three times during the play,” noted the 1966 Ye Primer. “About thirty weary members of the Belfry Club moped their ways from the stage at one o’clock that night and Mr. Talbot, our fastaging director, was confident of a good performance—at last. Leading actors Dave Pedrick ’66, Liz Wood (McElwain) ’68, Andy Berlin ’68, George Humphrey ’68, and Werner Lohe ’67, and the many other actors and actresses in the club, too numerous to name, all surpassed their best rehearsal in presenting two praiseworthy performances…”

Liz Wood was the first female student to earn a Belfry Pin and to serve as president of the club.

REMEMBERING BELFRY

THROUGH THE GENERATIONS Written by George Bihn III, Class of 1963

My eventual association with Belfry was inevitable. My arrival in kindergarten at GA in 1950 resulted, in part, from my parents’ close friendship with the Smiths (sons Arthur ’57, and Gordon ’59) and the Nasons (son Dee ’58). All three were “big kids" I grew up admiring. All three were active in Belfry, and, of course, I insisted on attending their productions. Most memorable performance: Dee Nason as Lachlan MacLachlan in The Hasty Heart.

Due to time and space–and, probably, economic–limitations, the Belfry Club of the 1950s and 1960s was quite different

The Belfry Club 1961

from what it is now: A single performance of one production (comedy or drama – no musicals) followed by a "formal" dance at Germantown Cricket Club (Manheim).

Since we had access to the theater (and ballroom) for the week of the performance only, sets and any special technical equipment had to be prefabbed in a woodshop in Moore Hall (Lower School) basement, and performance week was an incredible scramble.

Early in the ’60s, an agreement with Stevens School in Chestnut Hill, whereby Stevens provided female characters for our productions and Belfry provided their male characters, greatly enhanced the range of the productions we were able to mount.

My initiation to Belfry was a one-line appearance, in Thurber’s The Male Animal, as Myrtle Keller in a blonde wig and a dress and high heels borrowed, with as much diplomacy as I could muster, from a rather large aunt. Taking the trolley and train to Jenkintown station in full drag and makeup after Thursday-night dress rehearsal, although mercifully negotiated without untoward incident, probably remains my most memorable Belfry moment.

Much as I enjoyed Belfry during all the Upper School years, my involvement senior year, when I was president, was problematic because I was also captain of the swimming team, and the seasons coincided, making absence from certain key rehearsals inevitable. We were presenting R.U.R., Carel Kapek’s 1920 science fiction drama depicting an insurrection of the robots. I was assigned the role of Radius, the lead robot rebel, because he appeared in only a few scenes and needed to look scary, but did not need to engage in much dialogue. A highlight from that show was Radius’ entrance marching through the center aisle of the audience to the darkened stage, which earned me a "fan letter" from a Lower School student, Barbara Hitschler ’68, later Barbara Serrill, who said I had scared her.

I can’t claim to have made it to more than a few of the Belfry Club productions since graduating, but, of those I have attended, I have a few favorites. Daughter Elizabeth ("Biz") ’05 appeared in a production of Tina Howe’s Museum, that must get honorable mention. Apparently simple, but thematically rich, the play is a sequence of

sketches of the reactions of people of different origins and backgrounds to three abstract art installations, illustrating the proposition that the effect a piece of art has on a viewer has as much to do with what the viewer brings to it as what the artist intends or presents. Philoprogenitive impulse aside, I considered the Belfry production a bold choice and very well executed. Biz still appears regularly with an improv group in Baltimore. My son, Rick (George F., IV ’03), was active in Belfry as well, but very deliberately stayed backstage. He ran tech–set, lights and sound–during his junior and senior years at GA. Perversely determined to pass through GA with no recognition whatsoever, he was flummoxed by an award for his efforts at graduation.

Of the productions I’ve attended, Oliver! was probably my favorite. In a show where casting is both challenging and extremely important, Belfry came through exceptionally well, particularly with the actor who played Fagin, Stuart Schurr ’84.

Relationships among people who share a stage are unlike those in team sports or other group activities. At their best, they can raise and resolve issues of sensitivity, trust, and vulnerability that don’t surface in ordinary social intercourse. Through the Belfry Club, I came to know and appreciate classmates and other GA students more intimately than I otherwise would have.

And the reward of that sort of intimacy, as much as my love of theater and dramatic literature, led me to pursue community theater, as time permitted, in college and, later on, as a refreshing diversion while practicing law.

When fatherhood and career came to demand the time that would otherwise have been committed to production schedules, I reluctantly left the stage, but by then I had enjoyed advising and directing a high school drama club, directing quite a few plays, and playing leads in several musicals and plays. All of these experiences came with rich rewards, and all began with Belfry Club.

BEHIND THE CURTAIN EDWIN PROBERT II 1760

Shortly after the move to Fort Washington, Edwin Probert II 1760 took the reins of the Belfry Club and there couldn’t have been a more perfect candidate for the role. As enrollment increased, the number of students interested in drama skyrocketed and, thanks to Probert’s leadership, the Belfry Club started performing three shows a year on the stage in the Small Gym. During his tenure, Belfry took on everything from The Odd Couple to The Crucible to M*A*S*H, and was a regular participant in the Pennsylvania Drama Festival.

“Brigadoon” 1990

Probert was the Belfry Club advisor from 1968 until 1984 and retired from full-time teaching at the conclusion of the 2003-04 academic year. He continued his role as the Academy’s archivist for a number of years thereafter.

He directed the production of Finian’s Rainbow that I was in as an 8th grader. We performed in the Small Gym (called the Girls Gym back then!). Edwin directed with a mixture of cheerful enthusiasm and dry wit. He made the process fun, and he embraced the inevitable chaos that arises in the course of a production. We had a power outage in the middle of a performance of that show, a total blackout. The line just before the lights went out, was, ‘Just think of all the money father’ll be saving you!’ Boom. Total darkness. Into which Danny Weintraub ad libbed, ‘Yeah, and all the electricity.’ Everyone laughed, the lights came back on and we finished the performance. Lots of directors would have been horrified, but at the end of the year at the Belfry Picnic, where they traditionally used to hand out awards, Edwin added a new one. He presented Danny with the ‘Golden Shovel,’ for best ad lib of the year. It was perfect.”

BELFRY FINDS A PERMANENT HOME

Arts Center Opening 1982

The opening of the Arts Center in 1982 was a pivotal moment for the Belfry Club as it not only provided a permanent home for GA’s theatrical productions for the first time in school history, but it also opened up the doors for new curriculum and engaging learning opportunities.

Since its inception, the Belfry Club routinely performed shows at the Germantown Cricket Club, known locally as Manheim, as well as at the Bellevue-Stratford.

Then in fall 1982, thanks to the generosity of Edwin M. Lavino 1760, the Arts Center was completed. The Arts Center not only brought a modern stage and auditorium, but also a new drama curriculum where students could hone their craft during the school day. At the time, GA hired former Broadway veteran Liz Emmert to be the Director of the Arts Center from 1983-89. The first performance in the new space was The Mousetrap.

Under the leadership of Upper School Performing Arts Teacher and Belfry Club Director K. Richardson, now in her 17th year at GA, the Upper School’s current “We found that reducing the price of admission brought us a full “Doing big musicals like Anything Goes drama scene looks and feels more like a university program with its house, a wonderful time and a tidy sum to turn over to Dr. Osbourn,” and Crazy for You really lit that flame for class offerings of Music Theatre, me of being in a large scale musical Improv, Advanced Acting, and wrote former Upper School Audition and Performance. faculty member David A.

STAGE CREW PERFORMS “Rumors” 2019

AND THE AWARD GOES TO… Over the years, the Belfry Club has been recognized a number of times by the greater theatre community and local media. Led by Belfry Club Director K. Richardson, the 2018-19 school year was in fact a banner year for the Belfry Club, which won top awards at both the Greater Philadelphia CAPPIES (Critics and Awards Program for High School Students) Gala as well as The Philadelphia Independence Awards.

Behind every great Belfry Club production is an army dressed in black that makes sure every technical aspect of the show is executed to perfection, whether it’s building a set, changing sets in between scenes, designing the lighting of a show, or working behind the soundboard. Tech theatre, including stage crew, has always played a crucial role for Belfry performances, but in fall of 2006 the tech theatre program was formalized by former Tech Theatre Director Bill Kingsbury, who offered courses during the day that covered set construction, stage lighting, sound, rigging, costumes, props, and technical directions. The classes were offered to support the construction of the impressive set build for The Belfry’s heralded production of Les Miserables. GA continues to offer Advanced Technical Theatre and Theatrical Design classes for students, under the helm of Paul Moffitt.

GA entered its production of Neil Simon’s Rumors into CAPPIES competition and came out with six awards, including Best Play, Best Ensemble (Danny Ritz ’19 and Naomi Friedman ’19), Best Leading Male Actor (Vinit Joshi ’19), Best Leading Female Actor (Naomi Friedman ’19), Best Supporting Female Actor (Alex Kafrissen ’20), and Best Supporting Male Actor (Danny Ritz ’19). GA was also nominated for Best Sound and Best Set.

“We don’t (perform) because we want to win an award. We do it because we have an insatiable love for performing. We don’t ever feel satisfied with ourselves until we believe that we’ve given it our all.”

– Vinit Joshi ’19 One night later, GA won three honors at the Philadelphia Independence Awards for its November 2018 production of Chess, including: Best Solo Dancer (Kafrissen), Best Male Vocalist (Ritz), and Best Lights: Daryl Dohner ’19 (Lighting Designer), Allan Kaufman ’19 (Master Electrician and Head Spot), Tara Babal ’20 (Follow Spot), Perry Fraser ’22 (Follow Spot), Jack Galloway ’22 (Follow Spot). GA was also nominated for Best Dance Ensemble and Best Ensemble.

“Carousel” 1997

During his tenure as Belfry Club advisor, Vince Campbell (1991-2002) led the Belfry Club into unchartered territory.

Taking full advantage of the Arts Center and all of its amenities, a tailored drama curriculum, and state-of-the-art technology, Campbell was able to take one of the most storied drama clubs in the country to new levels.

Help Our Students Dream!

nce upon a time, in a place called the Germantown Academy Lower School, students and faculty dreamed of a new Library and Learning Commons. The students envisioned a place filled with natural light where they could find comfortable spaces to fall in love with reading, collaborate with friends, and even see their ideas come to life in a theater and a media studio. The faculty dreamed the new space would serve as both the academic centerpiece of the school and as a vital community hub.

O

Eager to make their dreams come true, members of the GA community (including current families, alumni, and parents of alumni) knew this new space would enhance our already-outstanding Lower School. They stepped up and offered the support for construction to begin this past June.

Now, the entire community can share the dream by sponsoring a book for our brand new Library and Learning Commons opening this fall. YOU can help us celebrate the 60th anniversary of our Lower School in Fort Washington, and be the reason a student dreams when they open a brand new book.

Go to www.germantownacademy.net/lslibrary to learn more about this exciting project. You can make your gift online, or return the enclosed envelope. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

DISTINGUISHED AWARDS

Annually, GA honors members of the faculty, administration, or staff with awards for excellence in program development, teaching, service, or other exceptional achievement in the form of a Distinguished Achievement Award. This year’s Distinguished Achievement Award winners were (from left to right): Stephanie Jennings, Accounts Payable Coordinator; Sherri Retif, Middle School Physical Education Department Head (extracurricular excellence); Carlos Chubb, Upper School Spanish; Maggie Kelly, Lower School Music; Mike Rheam, Upper School Science; Rachel Lintgen ’90, Upper School English/Head of Truesdell House; Cory Eklund, Middle School Science Department Head; Graham Martin, 5th Grade; and Kurt Wetzel ’88, 5th Grade.

Each year, GA awards four Mission Awards to outstanding members of the faculty, administration, and staff with a minimum of three years of service to GA who go above and beyond to fulfill one or more tenets of the GA Mission. This year’s Mission Award winners are (left to right): Sarah Blake, Middle School Librarian; Jean Grady, Lower School Assistant Teacher; Melissa Fikioris, Associate Director of Alumni Relations; and Janelle Collett, Upper School History Teacher.

CRAIG NEWBERGER 1760 HONORED Lower School Science Coordinator Craig Newberger 1760 was named the first Diane Goldstein 1760 Chair for Excellence in the Teaching of Science. The Chair was established in February 2019 and named after current Upper School Science Teacher Diane Goldstein 1760. The selection is based on outstanding teaching ability in science as well as the overall contributions of the faculty member to the Academy. During the end-of-year faculty/staff meeting, Goldstein had the opportunity to present Newberger with the award.

“

Growing up, I remember digging in the dirt and Matchbox cars and worms and bees,” said Goldstein. “But I don’t remember a Craig – an adult introducing me to our physical world and trying to explain how it worked. Craig has talked to more students individually at this school than anyone else. For that alone, he has earned this chair. GA Upper School inducted 18 students into the National Science Honor Society. Of the Lifers in the group, I honestly think every one of them referenced Craig’s influence on them. Students explore while learning real science, and GA is giving them the best possible start: Craig Newberger.”

Jason Straub 1760 was named The Claire and Jeffrey Black Family Endowed Chair for the Teaching of Mathematics.

The selection is based on outstanding teaching ability in mathematics, as well as the overall contributions of the faculty member to the Academy. Straub currently serves as the Upper School Mathematics Department Chair and is an Upper School Math teacher and chess club advisor.

“Jason’s ability not just to think outside-thebox but to upend the box or even convince us there never should have been a box in the first place sets him apart as a thinker, teacher, and learner,” said Head of School Rich Schellhas.

GAXP TAKES STUDENTS TO NEW ORLEANS Written by Autem Burgess ’21

Going on a GAXP trip for the first time, I didn’t know what to expect. I wasn’t sure what we’d be doing or even the people that we’d meet. I can safely say, however, that this trip was truly one of a kind. For the first couple of days, we worked with a non-profit organization called Youth Rebuilding New Orleans (YRNO) and assisted them with building a house. Some of us applied drywall in the attic, some got rid of the debris underneath the house, and others helped build an entire porch. With all of these different jobs happening at once, it was amazing to physically see the progress that we made in only a couple of days.

Aside from building the house itself, we also talked to one of the workers from YRNO about some of the reasons why community service learning trips like these are so important. For starters, in August 2005, New Orleans was tragically hit by Hurricane Katrina, which devastated many and destroyed countless homes.

We also learned that non-profit organizations are so crucial to helping rebuild New Orleans because they are able to renovate people’s homes, but not make them too expensive that they become unaffordable to the current residents. Along with this, YRNO also explained to us their eco-friendly approach to housing and sustainability, such as turning concrete sidewalks into

greenery so that when it rains the grass would absorb the rain water and help decrease flooding.

Another huge part of this trip was exploring New Orleans. We visited historical landmarks, learned more about New Orleans and American history, went to museums, and ate incredible food.

Exploring the French Quarter and the French market, we were also able to see New Orleans culture like never before. We enjoyed exploring the nightlife and even listened to live jazz.

Being able to help others in need, learn about New Orleans, and experience New Orleans culture all in the span of only a few days was incredible and a once in a lifetime experience. It was a rewarding experience that I hope everyone gets the chance to do someday.

Editor’s note: Led by Upper School history teacher Brent Freedland, GA Experience (GAXP) programs are designed for students and faculty to have an extraordinary, challenging, engaging experience to connect with our Mission and the world in a meaningful way.To be considered for this exceptional program, students must submit an application and share why they hope to participate.

Negro ’19, Daryl Dohner ’19, and Kevin Hou ’19. Joshi wrote an original script for a one-person show that he performed along with a series of written works describing the process of how he embodied each character through research and practice. Griswold created a documentary that focused on entrepreneurship, which included interviews with several GA alumni. Kuehnle wrote a collection of short stories about a girl who goes to live with her grandmother in Puerto Rico for the summer.

Negro created a podcast called

Pop Globe, which looks at global events and world issues and is geared for middle and high school students who want a better understanding of people, events, or organizations that they might hear about on the news. Dohner designed a comprehensive computer program that can better teach computer programming. Hou created a six-part educational video series for high school students and young adults that focuses on personal finance, including credit cards, insurance, and investment.

THEN & NOW

A Look Back at the Debate Scene at GA | By Dr. Mark Rabuck ’86, School Archivist and Upper School History Teacher

Whether it is around the Harkness Table, in election-year assemblies sponsored by the History Department, or in clubs such as Model UN or Mock Trial, spirited debate has always been a part of the GA tradition. More formal competitive debate has also played a role in the school’s history. From the late 19th century through the middle of the 20th, the school held a Prize Debate on a topic selected by the Headmaster. In 1913, students argued for or against a more restrictive immigration policy, and in 1939, the annual topic was

government subsidies to American corporations. Winners earned a cash purse of $10 to $20. The modern tradition of forensic debate began in the early 1980s under the guidance of Spanish teacher Thomas Moore and coach Robert Cohen.The team competed in the National Catholic Forensic League and participated in tournaments hosted by universities across the East Coast. The team faded in the mid 1990s, only to be revived in the present day under Upper School History teacher Janelle Collett.This past year, the

Patriots won the ultra-competitive District 11 Championship, and 17 students qualified for the Pennsylvania High School Speech League State Tournament. At States, Charlotte Rapp ’19, Christina Nguyen ’21, Helen Wu ’21, and Priya Anand ’21 made it through four fiercely competitive preliminary rounds to compete on the second day. Rapp ended the day ranked in the Top 10 Impromptu Speakers in Pennsylvania, and Wu and Anand ended the tournament in the Top Five Public Forum debate teams in the state.

UPPER SCHOOL STUDENTS DIVE DEEP INTO AMBLER’S STORY Dozens of Upper School students spent the better part of the 2018-19 school year exploring the nearby borough of Ambler, a rejuvenated town just around the corner from GA’s campus, as part of “Looking at Ambler,” a multi-disciplinary, multi-departmental, collaborative project, led by David Love.

Faculty across disciplines worked together to develop curricula exploring the town, its residents, and most importantly its evolution over the many years. Students were given multiple opportunities to visit the town during the school day. During an assembly, students shared their findings, which covered Ambler’s rich history, the multifaceted impact of the asbestos industry, and, most recently, Sasha Capers ’20 with her mom, Dana Capers P’20 ’24, at Cellini Studios Ambler’s renaissance. Classes that participated in “Looking at Ambler” included AP U.S. History (Judy Krouse 1760), In addition to the assembly, Upper School art students also created Environmental Science (Phil Rittenhouse 1760), Honors Statistics an exhibit at Cellini Studios and Gallery in Ambler entitled (Ruth Carver), AP Environmental Science (Richard O’Hern), “Looking at Ambler: Observations by Germantown Academy Honors Drawing/Painting (David Love), Honors Sculpture (Sara Visual Arts Students.” For more information on the Ambler project go to: Krupnick-Ritz), Honors Digital Media (Dainis Roman), and www.germantownacademy.net/lookingatambler Honors Photography (Nic Wynia).

ATHLETICS

From start to finish, GA’s varsity girls track and field team dominated its opponents this year en route to winning the Inter-Ac League title and the Pennsylvania Independent Schools Athletic Association title (by almost 50 points!).

At the league championship, Goldstein won all three of the events in which she was entered and was named Female Athlete of the Meet.

Alex Yan ’20 won the 2019 Inter-Ac Athletic League Singles tennis tournament. The tournament was structured as a double elimination bracket and all singles players played in the same bracket.

Derek Walkush ’19 was the recipient of a scholarship from the Triangle Club of Montgomery County for his outstanding accomplishments in athletics, academics, and community service. Walkush was presented with the scholarship during the annual William F. Dannehower Banquet at Presidential Caterers in East Norriton.

At the PAISAA Championship, Issy Goldstein ’20 and Meaghan Toscano ’20 each had two top finishes and set new PAISAA records in the process. Fore Abinusawa ’22 (100 dash) and Quartnei Brown ’21 (pole vault) took first in their events in record-breaking fashion. Perry Irons ’21 took home gold in the 300-meter hurdles.

18 GERMANTOWN ACADEMY

GA’s boys track and field team earned third place finishes at the PAISAA and the league championship. At PAISAA, GA had four first place finishes on the day, but had 11 top-six finishes total. Robert DiDonato ’21 led the way with wins in the 1600 and 3200. Caleb Johnson ’19 cleared 15-07.00 to finish first and set a new PAISAA record in the pole vault. Ola Abinusawa ’19 also finished first with a throw of 56-00 in the shot put. He finished second in the discus

with a 142-09.00 heave and fifth in the javelin, throwing 132-8.00.

At Inter-Acs, DiDonato won the 1600, 800, and the 3200 to earn Male Athlete of the Meet honors. Johnson took the top spot in the boys pole vault and Abinusawa won the shot put with a heave of 58-10.75, more than eight feet farther than the next thrower.

Charlotte Rapp ’19 and Ola Abinusawa ’19 were honored this spring with the Inter-Academic Athletic League Athletic Directors Award, which is presented annually to a senior boy and girl who has been a multi-sport varsity athlete and has exemplified dedication to the team and school, leadership, sportsmanship and who has been an outstanding representative of the league.

WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE...

THE HADDADS

?

The Haddads, Middle School Math Teacher Salwa 1760 and Upper School Science Teacher Nabil, spent a collective 44 years in FortWashington where they shared their culture, their teaching talents, and their love for community with hundreds of students (and sometimes the children of those students) and colleagues. While they don’t miss grading papers, traditions like the end of year Faculty/Staff Breakfast and House Olympics remain close to their hearts.

What has been keeping you busy since you retired in 2008 (Salwa) and 2012 (Nabil)?

Nabil: We are still at our home in North Wales. I work with the government as a translator and tutor students. Every year we travel to see our daughter and her family in Dubai, as well as to California to see our son and his family. I enjoy listening to my collection of classical music and listening to the news around the world.

Salwa: I enjoy reading and tutoring students from GA and the surrounding area. It’s like staying fit educationally!

and read to them.

They never learned though. I have to say teaching real students was much more rewarding!

Have you seen any GA Alumni recently?

What part of the school day do you miss most?

Nabil: The Classroom. The connections to and with the students is an invigorating experience. The give and take is exhilarating and the energy electrifying.

Salwa: I always loved the healthy bustle of the mornings where all the students walk in and there is an energy that is still fresh.

You see the athletes coming back from training, the students excitedly catching up before they start their day, and the school coming alive with the heartbeat that will carry it through the day.

If you weren’t a teacher, what career would you have chosen?

Nabil: I always wanted to work in the medical field. Chemistry and Physics interested me. I loved the lab and research aspects of the subjects. I also wanted to help. Becoming a teacher gave me the same satisfaction.

Salwa: I always wanted to teach. When I was very young I used to line up my toys

Nabil: I often meet alumni as I travel daily by train. We often chat and catch up on our news. It is always rewarding to hear all the achievements accomplished by them.

Salwa: I have always been in touch with GA alumni. Many of them still meet me for coffee or drop by the house for a taste of home-cooked Arabic dishes. I get mail updates about weddings and babies and exciting news about careers and travels all the time. I buy their albums on iTunes, read the articles they write, watch their shows and movies and follow the news of their achievements. It’s wonderful to see the Middle Schoolers that lived in my GA math room become the adults who run this world.

What does being a member of the Class of 1760 mean to you?

Salwa: It is a badge of honor that I wear with pride. It also keeps me connected to GA. It is a vehicle to paying it forward; that legacy that GA carries within its name and that connects the many generations of parents, faculty, staff and friends that make up the ever-growing GA family.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to have a platform in which I can express my viewpoint. Freedom of speech and the responsibility that comes with that right is a pressing topic today.

1760s

Dan Rankin 1760 checked in with this update: “Susan and I continue to balance our year between our primary home in Vero Beach, Florida and our cabin in Nobleboro, Maine. We’ve now added a small condo in Norristown to this collection of residences…absolutely crazy.

We’re in constant touch with our 1760 classmates Susie Perot 1760 and Charley Muir 1760. Always a highlight of our year is attending 50-year reunions of former students.”

Marcia Wexler 1760 shared this update: “In early June, we kayaked 120 miles over the course of one week, from Schuylkill Haven PA, to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Rapids were plentiful and the river was fast. We camped out each night and were treated to delicious meals by civic groups along the way. Here is a picture of us going through what they call ‘The Chutes.’ Can't wait to do it again next year!”

Art Smith ’57 spent a week in Normandy, France, celebrating the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings, which took place June 6, 1944. The anniversary celebration included vintage aircraft flyovers and fully operational military equipment, including tanks, howitzers, and jeeps. “But the best was meeting and talking with Vets who were there,” said Art. “All are in their 90s, and most were spry and active. An emotional trip, including the visit to the American Cemetery at Omaha Beach where over 9,300 soldiers were killed during the two to three month battles to defeat the Germans in Normandy are interred.”

1960s

1950s

Randall Austin ’54 writes, “To my fellow ’54s. As we mourn the loss of several classmates this past year, I’d appeal to those of us that live far and wide to take the opportunity to gather and celebrate our 65th reunion this fall.”

Bob McCammon ’57 moved to Meadowood Retirement Community three years ago, and just completed two years as the finance coordinator for the Residents' Association. He traveled to France last October, including visits to Normandy, Brittany, and the Loire Valley. He still plays golf at Old York Road and Saint Simons Island.

IN MEMORIAM

Now retired, Charley Harmar ’67 has returned to a pastime he was known for in his high school days - drawing cartoons. Here is an example inspired by his GA experience.

Dana Harbison ’73, an acupuncturist, has moved her office to 809 North Bethlehem Pike in Lower Gwynedd. Dana writes, “I have lots of GA athletes and

grads as patients. Acupuncture is very effective for all kinds of health issues!”

After 38 years in the corporate world, James Shelley ’73 retired in 2012 and started a documentary film production company. A director and writer, he created CyberWork and the American Dream, a documentary that aired on PBS about artificial intelligence and the future of work. The film can also be streamed on the PBS app. Shelley’s first documentary, American Umpire, was broadcast on PBS in 2016 and can be seen on Amazon Prime.

Suzy Goldstrohm Cline ’74 and her husband became grandparents for the first time when grandson, Caleb “Arlo” Remington, was born on May 9, 2019. They hope to make it to their 45th reunion.

Greetings Fellow Alums!

I am excited and honored to serve as your Alumni Society Board President for the next two years. I was a lifer at GA and graduated in 2003. As an engaged alumnus I have been able to see the school through a different perspective which has given me a greater appreciation for the school and has made me realize how meaningful my time was as a student. I hope that every alum can reconnect with the school and have a similar experience if they haven’t already.

We have a great group of alumni that make up our Board. Our mission is to foster a community for alumni to remain connected with each other and to stay engaged with the school.

We are here to support YOU and are happy to answer any questions you have, or help you find ways to get involved.

Go Patriots!

Will Weihenmayer ’03 w.weihenmayer@gmail.com

Mark Luff ’74, a middle school English teacher, is the longest-serving faculty member at Episcopal Academy (since 1978) and was highlighted in an online feature.

After 22 years away, Rick Roberts ’75 and his wife, Sharon, are moving back to the Fort Washington area. “We decided we wanted to see our two granddaughters, who are 3½ and 1½, more. We will be moving away from three sons and four grandsons in Georgia and North Carolina.

We have enjoyed Georgia and will miss our Georgia friends and family. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the football games.”

Musician and conductor Julia Wolfe ’77 was featured in The NewYork Times on January 22, 2019 in an article entitled “Arming a Chorus of Women With Scissors.” Her new oratorio, “Fire in My Mouth,” is about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. She scoured New York’s garment district looking for the right sounds.

His presidential address, entitled, "Get Better,” encouraged striving for continued improvement. He currently works as a Professor of Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in pancreatic surgery.

1990s

New York Times national baseball writer Tyler Kepner ’93 has written a book entitled K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches. Tyler said, “If you can tell the story of the pitchers then you can examine the DNA of the game

because every game is 200-250 pitches. In pitching, it’s the idea of one on one in the game. The pitcher has so many possible ways of getting that ball to the plate; such an extraordinary advantage if you think of it.” Fun note: Kepner’s book was also a recent question on Jeopardy!

Basketball alumnae Cathy Hebling Peduzzi ’94 and Erin Lynch McMahon ’94 enjoyed a minireunion at Gwynedd Mercy Academy with treasured coach Jim Buckley 1760 this spring.

Valerie DavisMissick ’94 owns and operates a performing arts studio in Villa Rica, Georgia. She is a chorus director in the Atlanta Public School District and she also coaches track, cross country, and swimming. She’s won Atlanta Public School District Coach of the Year three times for her school. In 2014, she won Positive Youth Coach of the Year for the state of Georgia.

Congratulations to our inaugural recipients of the Alumni Mission Award! We are proud to officially honor them during GA/PC Day & Alumni Weekend.

Please enjoy reading excerpts from their nominations to see how they are all Independent in Thought, Confident in Expression, Compassionate in Spirit, Collaborative in Action, and Honorable in Deed.

KARLA BALLARD WILLIAMS ’90 Leaving a successful career in the banking industry, Karla took a leap of faith and began service work by starting a chapter of the Urban League, an organization aimed at empowering people of color to achieve economic self-reliance, equality, power, and civil rights.

She took that experience with her when she went to work as the Senior Vice President of Participant Media’s TAG Division, a social action agency working with brands, foundations, and the public sector to ignite compelling campaigns to drive impact in

vulnerable communities.

Combining her business acumen and service work, Karla then created her own company and mobile app,YING, which is designed to help lower income communities use skill sharing and trading as currency.YING’s mission is to demonstrate that money shouldn’t be the only determining factor in what people have access to – that you can “skill share” to acquire your needs AND build community at the same time. Karla has also been active in working to raise awareness of the effects of PTSD on our veterans. Never

JENNIFER EHINGER ’88 Jen has worked tirelessly to improve the lives and the futures of poverty-stricken children of Uganda. In addition to being a mother of two children and a Principal at Certified Abstract Company, Inc., Jen finds not only time, but also boundless energy to bring hope for a bright future to these children. Jen has traveled to Africa five times—three times to Uganda, once to Cameroon, and once to Kenya. Her work in Uganda has been both independent and also in conjunction with a non-profit that has, over the last 10 years, worked to build and grow a high school in Uganda providing impoverished children a chance for an excellent education. While visiting Uganda, Jen travels out of the developed areas into poverty-stricken regions to meet people and understand their

challenges and struggles. She brings with her important items from the U.S. such as shoes and clothing. Jen has literally been down on the ground putting shoes on children who otherwise spend their days barefoot in the dirt. While on one visit to Uganda, Jen saw an elementary school (that serves 100 students) in desperate need of being rebuilt. She took immediate action and within a few hours, right there on her phone from Uganda, Jen raised the money to rebuild the school that looked like nothing more than a stable for cows and goats. She has raised money to transform another school by cementing dirt floors and installing a well to provide clean water for the students.

EUGENE GOLSON ’76, P ’06

An educator and administrator for the School District of Philadelphia for 38 years, Gene Golson (pictured far right) brought about an unwavering commitment to excellence from both his students and his staff. Passionate about arts education and wanting to engage his students in the creative world, he worked with the Philadelphia Arts in Education Partnership (PAEP) through his former school, Creighton Elementary, to help students, seniors, and special populations in schools and community site environments to encourage excellence in arts education practice. In addition to his work in the schools, Gene mentored students through his church and held various leadership roles, including President of Ye Olde Philadelphia Club. Founded in 1926, the Club’s mission “is to establish representative behavior among African-American men and

encourage its membership to be independently engaged and active in civic ventures.” In 2015, he won the organization’s Appreciation Award, along with former Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey (above left). Gene retired in 2017 and is now a counselor at Carson Valley Children’s Aid.

MEGHAN MCVEIGH MACIOLEK ’97, P’31 ’33

Meghan created the GA Alumni Community Service Organization as a way for GA alumni to participate in community service opportunities and to mentor students, all in honor of her late father, Peter McVeigh 1760. Her efforts are felt all around the country.

She has organized service projects to help at Sunday Morning Breakfast Rescue Mission, Face-to-Face and St. John’s Hospice in Philadelphia and built a network of alumni to lead outreach projects in other regions. She has also helped coordinate the GA Day of Service the last two years, with events in the Philadelphia area, New York City, Washington DC, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles. She organized a group of runners (McVeigh’s Runners) for the Broad Street Run to raise over $15K for Back on My Feet, a non-profit with a mission to combat homelessness through the power of running, community support, essential employment, and housing resources. Meghan is leading by example and inspiring others to continue to Live the Legacy of Peter McVeigh. She is showing her own children and all of us what giving back and a little help from “your friend McVeigh” can do.

JAY TALSANIA ’82

Jay is an orthopedic surgeon practicing in the Lehigh Valley who specializes in hands and arms. Over the past 15 years, Jay has traveled with a group of physicians from Guatemala Healing Hands Foundation (GHHF) on pediatric hand missions to Guatemala, volunteering his time to operate on children in rural areas of the country.

GHHF’s presence in Guatemala is crucial as communities continue to struggle under the arm of poverty and inaccessible medical care. More and more families are turning to GHHF for specialized hand and orthopedic needs. Because of GHHF’s unique relationship with the various Guatemala hand therapy and surgery associations, they are a trusted teaching source and a vital American group providing cutting-edge hand education to both the surgical and therapy communities. Through his work with GHHF, Jay has doubtlessly improved the quality of life for hundreds of children

who may not otherwise have received the level of medical care he is able to offer. His 11th trip is planned for October.

Gerhold also gives private music lessons, serves as a teaching assistant, teaches masterclasses, and assists the Advancement Department at her alma mater, the Curtis Institute of Music, where she majored in Harp Performance and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music in 2018.

In addition to The Philadelphia Orchestra, she has also performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. In 2017, she was a Harp Fellow at the Tanglewood Music Festival, and played in various chamber groups there.

With the Philadelphia Orchestra, Gerhold has played for a number of notable conductors, including Yannick NezetSéguin, John Williams, Fabio Luisi, and Stéphane Denève and has had the opportunity to be included in the orchestra’s tour of Asia.

Professional harpist Helen Gerhold ’14 has traveled the world and back again, and while she might not speak the local language of every country she performs in, she certainly has no problem connecting with her audiences.

piano). We can play both the melody and the accompaniment to support it at the same time. Because of this, we can play a range of music and can give an orchestral, holistic feeling of a piece in our range and ability to play many notes at the same time.

Gerhold, who started playing the harp as a five-year old, and who was selected to join the Philadelphia Orchestra at age 17, absolutely loves the thrill of performing live on stage.

It’s also very elegant, can light up a room, and always lights up anyone’s face when they see it.”

“Music is really special,” said Gerhold, who has performed in China, Hong Kong, Poland, South Korea, and a number of cities throughout the United States. “It’s a language that we can all understand, no matter where we come from.”

“I have never felt a sense of pride and freedom more than when I play and perform,” said Gerhold. “The harp is unique, and is one of only two selfaccompanying instruments (the other is 36 GERMANTOWN ACADEMY

“They’re really famous in China, which is close to my heart, as I’m half Chinese and my grandparents still live in Shanghai,” said Gerhold. “They were the first American orchestra to play in China since the People’s Republic was founded in 1949.”

As a lifer, she’s forever grateful for the opportunity to “grow up” on GA’s campus.

“GA had a great way of fostering whatever I wanted to do, even though it was mostly outside of the community,” said Gerhold.

“GA’s teachers, students, and parents all wanted to understand what I was doing and gave me performance opportunities for me to get better at my discipline and to learn beyond it. When I was in GA, schoolwork was my priority. The gifted teachers in all subjects taught me how to integrate comprehensive thought into my music and work. I enjoyed Science Fair, Reading Olympics, and Mr. Newberger’s trip to Costa Rica, and treasure GA’s gift of a high-caliber education. The GA community was—and still is—supportive.”

“I’m glad I grew up at GA where, no matter what I wanted to do, I felt encouraged to be the most ‘me’ I could be.”

In addition to playing with the Philadelphia Orchestra on a regular basis as a substitute harpist, Gerhold also serves as the Executive Director of The Lyra Society, a non-profit that provides harp lessons to underserved students in the Philadelphia

Prior to that appointment, McCleary was appointed as Administrator of the Rhode Island Public Utilities Commission by Governor Raimondo. While serving the people of Rhode Island, McCleary oversaw the overhaul of the state’s electricity grid to integrate high levels of intermittent renewable energy. He was also part of the team that led the state’s landmark 2018 initiative to install over 400 megavolt of

Fifth Grade Students Learn from Alumni Veterans

“It was an honor to talk to the fifth graders about my service in the military,” said Fred Straub ’67, who was a Lieutenant (JG) in the Supply Corps of the U.S. Navy Reserve from 1971-73, stationed in Pensacola, Florida. “It’s refreshing that more recognition is being given to all veterans. So many have sacrificed so much in their service to our country. It was my privilege to serve if ever so briefly.”

Al Piranian ’65 with the 5th Grade group The Class of 2026 was challenged this spring to put the GA Mission to work within the local Montgomery County community.

Students were put into groups and participated in the design thinking process to build empathy and understanding around one of the topics they chose collectively: animals, differently abled individuals, homelessness, hunger, water pollution, and learning from veterans. The latter topic was the focus of students in fifth grade teacher Lauren Vanin’s group, who spent their time studying veterans and the meaning of service. The best part was having a GA connection with alumni military veterans.

38 GERMANTOWN ACADEMY

“Our goal was to learn from veterans,” said Vanin, whose dad, Ed Murphy, a Vietnam War veteran, also spoke with students.

“How can we take the values, virtues, and character traits that veterans live by and implement them into our own lives?”

“I found it enjoyable to visit GA’s 5th grade class and I was impressed by the inquiring minds covering its topic of being a veteran,” said Buck Rose ’59, who served in the U.S. Army from 1963-68. “I am proud to be a veteran, but it did come willingly with sacrifice. I was fortunate to go through the Army Artillery’s Offer Candidate School program that provided leadership exposure.

Simply put, the service is a character builder for future roles in life.”

“It was a real pleasure to come back to GA to talk to the students,” said Al Piranian ’65, who served in the U.S. Navy for 48 years, including 22 years in uniform. He retired as a Commander in 2015. He served at U.S. Naval stations in Norfolk, Virginia, Lakehurst, New Jersey, Patuxent River, Maryland, Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, the U.S. Naval Academy, Naval Air Systems Command, and The Pentagon. He made significant contributions to the F-14 Tomcat, F/A-18 Hornet and F-35 Lightning II.

“Service, to me, means serving the people of the greatest nation on earth,” continued Piranian. “Preserving democracy, and coming to the aid of allies under threat/attack from those who would destroy our freedoms! My father and uncles all served in the U.S. Army in World War II, and as I was growing up, their service was a large part of my life in the games we played, the books I read, and the movies I watched.”

CLASS OF 2002

Jeff Curtin: Back in the Game

Jeff Curtin ’02 played every sport growing up and loved just about everything that athletics had to offer. At GA, Curtin excelled in soccer and basketball, and later was inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame. An All-American top 10 recruit in soccer, he continued his career on the pitch at Georgetown University where he was named All-Big East for four consecutive years. He went on to play for the Chicago Fire and D.C. United before retiring early due to injuries.

Following his playing days, Curtin, who earned a degree in Business Administration and Management at Georgetown, made the transition into corporate America where he worked as a Clinical Trial Manager at Clinlogix, LLC in Lower Gwynedd.

“My playing career ended sooner than expected due to some injuries,” said Curtin,whose sister, Katie ’00, also had a stellar career at GA and brother, Jeff, is the head coach of the Philadelphia Union.

“Multiple surgeries and rehab took a bit of the fun out of sports and eventually led me to the tough decision to walk away from the game I loved. At that time, I wanted to try something totally new. Fortunately, I had a degree and was given an opportunity with a great company that exposed me to all aspects of international business. I learned so much in my time in healthcare and I’m forever grateful for that opportunity and the people I worked with.”

But around 2016, Curtin had that itch to return to the sideline, so to speak.

“Almost as soon as I began to look for opportunities within the sports industry I was presented with an opportunity with IPZ that I had to take,” said Curtin, who is now the Managing Director of International Players & Zito Partners, a New York City based management, representation, and consulting firm tailored towards professional athletes, entertainers, and sports organizations. “We represent individual clients in basketball, baseball, soccer, combat sports, media/entertainment, and also organizations like the NFL Alumni Association and USA Volleyball. We

procure and negotiate employment, endorsement and marketing contracts, provide public relations services, as well as overall career and business guidance for our clients.”

As Managing Director, Curtin oversees all aspects of the business, including business development, client relations, strategy, and the financial portion of IPZ.

“In addition, because of my familiarity with the professional soccer landscape, I handle the day-to-day scouting and recruitment and player management for our soccer group,” said Curtin.

Curtin’s team works with a wide range of brands, including Nike, Adidas, and Rawlings, on endorsement deals, naming rights, and other “outside of the box” marketing opportunities.

“There is no doubt that my time at GA prepared me for college and ultimately my professional career.”

As a former player, Curtin can relate personally to many of his clients.

“I can relate to them in a way that not many other people can,” said Curtin. “I know what the training commitment is like. I know what it was like to be a top recruit. I went through the professional sports draft process. I’ve been in a professional locker room, dealt with media, know what they are thinking when maybe things aren’t going well. I think my experience as a player allows me to connect with a lot of our clients and prospective clients. Also, a lot of coaches, general managers, players I played with, against, or for are still involved in the game, so the network was already established upon entry into the role, which helps a lot.”

The best part of the job?

“Every time one of our clients signs their first professional contract is special. That will never get old,” said Curtin.

While Curtin’s job is demanding and plenty of travel is involved, he still finds time to give back. Curtin is a member of the Board of Directors for Kick4Life F.C., a soccer club exclusively dedicated to social change in Lesotho, Africa.

“Anytime you can provide an opportunity for someone they otherwise would never have, it is special,” said Curtin.

In Curtin’s case, he’s extremely grateful for his opportunity to study at GA.

“GA was a life changing experience for me and one that I am forever grateful for,” said Curtin.

CLASS OF 1990

Liz Bales: The Cat’s Meow Growing up, Liz Bales ’90 wanted to be a movie star or a veterinarian, but she never saw herself as an inventor or entrepreneur.

That was until she attended the Atlantic Coast Veterinary Conference in September 2014 where she heard that euthanasia is the leading cause of death for cats because their humans give them up when they contract chronic diseases.

“From the time that I was a vet student, I was hearing that cats should not be eating from bowls, but every cat was eating from a bowl,” said Bales, who earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Women’s Studies at Middlebury College before earning her PhD as a veterinary medical doctor from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 2000. “At the conference, the topic of how cats eat touched every lecture and every disease we discussed.You see, cats are designed to hunt, catch and play with eight to twelve small meals both day and night. We bring them inside and deny them the ability to perform these natural behaviors and it is making them bored and fat and even sick.

“Then the lecturer told us the number one cause of death for cats was being surrendered to a shelter for behavior problems, where they are ultimately euthanized due to overcrowding,” continued Bales. “We are causing all of these problems by feeding from a bowl! I was stunned that no company or individual had provided a solution. So, I set out to change the world for cats, one mouse at a time.”

Motivated to make an impact, Bales designed a game-changing product in her head while driving home from the conference.

“I pulled up to my home and ran to the kitchen and drew it,” said Bales. “It looks pretty much just like my drawing.”

Taking her idea to market would be a bit more challenging. As fortune would have it, though, she met inventors and medical device manufacturers David and Steve Krupnick the next day at a neighborhood gathering.

“I convinced them to be my partners,” said Bales. “They brought in Phoebe Kearney a few months later. She and I did the original

prototyping. The design and development to turn my drawing into a product took about 14 months.”

Designing the product was not easy.

As Bales, now the CEO of Doc & Phoebe’s Cat Company, explained in Inventor’s Digest, “The product needed to be super light, oval in shape, similar to most prey and have an external fabric that had the tactile feel of prey, but that wouldn’t degrade and become a hazard to a cat.”

It also had to ensure that a cat could be fed five times a day and that 1.6 tablespoons of food was an ideal size for their stomachs, which would help manage weight while promoting exercise, alleviating anxiety, and preventing digestive issues.

Testing was the next step for Bales, who took her concept to professors at Penn’s School of Veterinary Medicine and to leading cat veterinarians in the field for feedback. Bales and company also tested the product in 25 homes of cats. Overall, the results were positive as typical behavior problems decreased.

Following the study, Bales and Kearney realized they wanted to make a better product that would require molds and other expenses, which would mean extra money.

“We set out to raise $36,000 in 30 days through a Kickstarter campaign and we did it in four days!” said Bales.

The self-proclaimed “catvocate” went on to raise $250,000 on Indiegogo, which allowed her company to go into production and deliver products on time to investors.

Bales received several boosts along the way. In August 2016, the Indoor Hunting Feeder System (then called NoBowl Cat Feeder Systems) won Best New Cat Product at SuperZoo, the most-attended pet industry trade show in North America.

Bales’ company was also chosen out of hundreds of applicants to be one of four inaugural companies in the Philadelphia 76ers Innovation Lab.

“That’s an unlikely partnership, right?” said Bales. “I learned about business discipline, reporting, communication, and then we rebranded the product. It was amazing to spend every day for about two years with other entrepreneurs.”

To date, the former Belfry Club performer has sold about 80,000 units. She was named to Brown Brothers Harriman’s “19 Women to Watch in 2019” and featured on NPR’s “How I Built This” with Guy Raz. “We provided a solution to a problem that researchers have been pointing at for decades,” said Bales, who has worked as a veterinarian at Red Lion Veterinary Hospital, Rau Animal Hospital, and the Chestnut Hill Cat Clinic. “As a result, the academic community has embraced it, and that’s a thrill.

Bales said she and her colleagues are working on four to five other new revolutionary products that they hope to launch in 2020.
