Roxana Ruth, daughter of Jeff Sharlet 90F
1990 Jeff Sharlet writes, “Roxana Ruth Sharlet, 8 pounds 3 ounces, 19 inches tall, was born just after midnight, April 1. “She has her mother’s eyes, my nose, and she was born looking backwards, so maybe she’ll be a historian like Julie (Rabig 92F). She was a week overdue and delivered only under duress, so maybe she’ll be chronically late like her father. We know she’ll be wonderful, because she already is.”

Jewelry artist Coco Dunmire has been awarded the Talente Prize 2009 at the Munich International Trade Fair. Talente is Europe’s most prestigious juried competitive exhibition, showing work by young and emerging artists working in crafts, design, and technology. Dunmire won for three brooches of resin and iron. Her work is exhibited and sold through 511 Gallery in New York City and Lake Placid, and she was chosen from more than 99 exhibitors who had been pre-selected for the show. Two of her works were acquired for the permanent collection of the Pinakothek der Moderne, in Munich, one of the greatest collections of 20th- and 21st century art, with four museums representing art, works on paper, architecture, and design.

1999 Danny Holt writes, “Many of you know about this already, but some of you haven’t heard from me in years. I’m very excited to announce that my solo CD Fast Jump (see opposite) is now available on Innova Recordings. The disc is jam-packed with music by some of my favorite composers: David Lang, Lona Kozik, Graham Fitkin, Caleb Burhans, and Jascha Narveson. The recording was produced by my friend and mentor Mike Garson (pianist for David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, and others, and a fantastic composer/improviser). Have a listen and please let me know what you think! If you like it, take a moment to write a short customer review on Amazon or iTunes to help spread the word. Visit www. dannyholt.net.” Holt will perform at the 40th celebration in June.
