Gabriel Pincus wrote with the following news: “On October 24, 2015, I will be marrying my fiancée, Kristen Koenig, who I met while we were both completing our MBAs at Vanderbilt University in 2014. Additionally, I recently launched an eponymous Hedge Fund, Pincus Funds (www. pincusfunds.com), based on a proprietary strategy that I developed two years ago. I am happy to announce that this fund is now available for outside accredited investors.”

Charles Curtis had his first novel, Strange Country Day, published in August by Month9Books. It's the first book in a middle grade series (for 9- to 13-year olds) focused on a group of 7th grade football players who suddenly find out they have mysterious special powers, all while dealing with the stresses of middle school life. This past August, Class Correspondent Lana Jacobs Edelman joined Stephen Gaynor School's admissions department. Lana began her career there as a head teacher and after taking time off to focus on raising her son and developing a private tutoring business, she is happy to return to the school, where she will be focusing on educational evaluations.
Please send your news to your Class Correspondent(S) before MAY 1, 2016.
