1993 Class Correspondent:
the back of a suburban on February 11, 2013. Way to spring into action, Warren! “My first thought was why can’t we pull that big suburban under the car port? The doors are flung open and it’s a torrential downpour with a tornado warning — this woman is half hanging out and fully clothed. And some little old lady is trying to get in her car who is blocking the entry. Someone brings a stretcher outside and it’s drenched and saturated. Anyway, it was a girl. I did like the midwives do and just put the baby on mom’s belly until someone brought clamps and scissors and such.” Christy ’88 & Dominic Spadafore welcomed baby Deborah Vincenza Spadafore "Cenza" on January 24, 2013.

Karra Duncan ’92 has been busy on the film circuit. Her last short film won the Silver Lei Award for Excellence in Filmmaking in the 2009 Honolulu International Film Festival. It was an official selection of seven film festivals and screened on ABC,
CBS, NBC, CW and FOX in over 100 cities two years in a row as part of a TV show that featured emerging Black Filmmakers called "African-American Short Films". After that, she took the leap to making her first feature film. It is based on her own coming of age story where she was living a life between two worlds (the Holland Hall life in the day and then dodging bullets in the ghetto after hours). She wrote and will be directing that feature film entitled "Influence of a Dollar". The film follows an unlikely friendship between a sheltered, private school girl (Dana) and an audacious, young gangster (Che), and how that results in an unconventional business deal. To 18-year-old Dana, having to dodge bullets on the way home from field hockey practice is simply a part of life. Her scholarship is her ticket out of Tulsa, Oklahoma. On the first day of senior year, the new kid turns out to be the fearless Che who has made a name for himself in the local drug game. Karra is still in the fundraising stage and IFP has gotten behind her as their fiscal sponsor - meaning all donations to the film are tax deductible.
