’60s

After a long career as an attorney in the Kansas City region, Sam Colville ’60 has retired to St. Marys, Georgia. He welcomes all Webb friends to visit. Colville’s mother, Emily Colville Fisher, was a beloved Latin teacher at Webb School for many years. Colville established the Emily Colville Fisher Fund at Webb in her honor.

Retired Webb social studies/ economics teacher and coach Jay Livingston ’62 now has a classroom named in his honor in Webb’s Upper School, made possible with a gift from Spartan alumnus Frank Majors ’86. Webb hosted a dedication ceremony in November in honor of Livingston, who joined the event virtually. Webb faculty and staff, Livingston's classmates, friends and his son Jay Livingston ’90 were also at the celebration. (above) Frank Majors speaks with guests and students in John Schmid’s ’86 classroom, now officially called The Jay Livingston Social Studies & Economics Classroom. (More pictures on the inside back cover of this Bulletin.) Deeply rooted in the history of American retail, Ron Emery’s ’69 5 & 10, which is the country’s second oldest family-owned 5 & 10, serves as a place of nostalgia and experience that modern-day shopping establishments often cannot provide.

Many a Knoxville family made the trip to the last remaining Emery’s 5 & 10 on Chapman Highway. In 2015, Emery moved his store to The Island in Pigeon Forge where it has since grown and developed into a modern destination and 21st century store. However, its roots have not been forgotten. Black-and-white photos of the original location started by Emery’s grandfather in 1927 still adorn the walls, merchandise is displayed from the same fixtures purchased 50 years ago and vintage décor hangs from the ceiling. As for Emery, he still works in the store from sunup to sundown to keep his grandfather’s story and vision alive.

’70s

Monica Langley ’76 joined Salesforce in 2017 as Executive Vice President of Global Strategic Affairs. She is also host of The Inflection Point, a digital series produced by Salesforce Studios. A bestselling author, Langley previously spent 27 years at The Wall Street Journal where she wrote multiple page-one profiles of newsmakers, including CEOs and presidential candidates.

For The Inflection Point, CEOs share how their personal backstories, professional influences and values inform their leadership and lives. “CEOs are often regarded as powerful and out of reach, and it’s easy to understand why,” says Langley. “But in my career, reporting for The Wall Street Journal, working in tech, and practicing law, I’ve had more meetings and interviews with CEOs than I can count. And I’ve always found them to be people like the rest of us – with their own strengths and weaknesses, their own challenges and their own very human stories.”

One of Langley’s interviews includes a conversation with Webb alumni Jimmy Haslam ’72, former CEO and now chairman of the board of the Pilot Company, and his wife, Dee Bagwell Haslam ’72, founder/ executive producer of RIVR Media and CEO of Haslam Sports Group.

Former Tennessee Governor and Knoxville Mayor,

Bill Haslam ’76,

has released his first book, Faithful Presence: The Promise and the Peril of Faith in the Public Square. In Faithful Presence, Haslam addresses the role of faith in political life. To quote the book’s description on amazon.com, “Too often, Bill Haslam argues, Christians end up shaping their faith to fit their politics rather than forming their politics to their faith. They seem to forget their calling is to be used by God in service of others rather than to use God to reach their own desires and ends . . . Drawing upon his years of public service, Haslam casts a remarkable vision for the redemptive role of faith in politics while examining some of the most complex issues of our time . . .”

’80s

Blair Potts ’80 has made his career as a chocolatier. Founder of Potts Chocolate in Charlotte, North Carolina, Potts’ shop features handmade chocolates, truffles and caramels made from the finest raw cacao beans. “I’ve been in specialty foods since I helped start the first microbrewery in Connecticut back in the ’80s,” says Potts, “and my wife suggested I start looking into chocolate about 12 years ago. So I did, and it turns out I kind of had a knack for it.” Potts added that he started crafting chocolates as a side gig until 2011 when he was able to pursue his passion, full-time. “Chocolates are very frustrating to work with,” he notes, “so once I got past that frustration, I found it really interesting, because the beans are all different depending on where they come from and when they’re harvested. Also, the chocolate will behave differently depending on the bean.”

Many Spartan alumni may remember Potts’ mother, Mary Jo Potts, a beloved Webb faculty member who taught English at Webb School for over 30 years.

Greg McMichael ’85 is Atlanta Braves Director of Alumni Relations. McMichael played for the Braves through the 1996 season, including pitching in the World Series in 1995 when the Braves won. He shares his passion for and the history behind the Atlanta Braves on the podcast Behind the Braves.

Leslie-Anne Levy ’90 leads the Infrastructure Security and Risk Analytics group in Argonne National Laboratory’s Decision and Infrastructure Sciences division.

Acclaimed opera singer Kevin Burdette ’92 is a member of the Atlanta Opera Company Players. In January 2021, the Players performed ‘Love Letters to Atlanta.’ Each ‘Love Letter’ included a visually stunning rendition of a song that had great meaning for the artist in a space that has significant meaning to Atlanta. Burdette performed ‘If Ever I Would Leave You’ from the beloved Lerner and Loewe musical Camelot, honoring one of his favorite vocal heroes, Cesare Siepi, another bass who adopted Atlanta as his hometown. Burdette chose to perform in the Atlanta Civic Center Auditorium, which closed in 2014.
