1978

Ray Boniface spent a terrific 10 days last spring in Aspen, Colo., with BernieDrury, Mark Hansen, and Fred Seligson, who has a new address in Boston. Ray says that he has taken a position as Mark's personal orthopedic surgeon.

Arthur Pearson and his wife, Barbara Harris, work together directing a branch of the Hurricane Island Outward Bound School in the Florida Keys from September to April each year. They have just returned from the Mollucan Islands in Indonesia where they did a reconnaissance for a British scientific expedition that they will lead there in May through July of 1986. They are under "Outward Bound" in the Florida Keys phone book.

Anne Bagamery moved to San Francisco in August 1984 to become Forbes' northern California correspondent. The magazine calls what she is doing "establishing a presence," but it's more like wreaking havoc on Montgomery Street (according to Anne). She says that Montgomery Street is San Francisco's Wall Street, and "if you have to spend most of your time pressing flesh, chucking chins, and dropping cards, SF is one of the nicest places on the planet to do it." She lives in the city, in an apartment with a spectacular view of the Golden Gate Bridge, but she spends a lot of time on Highway 101 to San Jose because her beat includes "all those wealthy nerds in Silicon Valley."

Anne has run into Frank McNerney in the financial district, Marc Capiobianco on the beach, and Barbara Moses. She reports that Peter Hirschberg is working for Steve Jobs at Apple Computer, but obviously that must be out of date since Jobs has left Apple. Unfortunately, that may make it too late for Peter to do the favor for her that she has requested, namely that he fix one of her friends up with Steve Jobs on a date. Duane Peterson is apparently working for the California Attorney General in L.A. on projects including stopping illegal marijuana farming and reform of child-abuse laws. A.Kelley Fead and her husband, Gary Slack '76, had a baby in May 1984, called Lewis Alexander (Alex). Kelley is working for Capitol Publications, a newsletter publisher in Washington, D.C., but part time. Bob Gray (according to Anne) bought a BMW in the summer of 1984 and took delivery of it in Germany, shortly after moving to Houston for Morgan Guaranty. Bob's car purchase odyssey made a September issue of Forbes.

Joan McGivern wrote in March that she has graduated from Georgetown Law School and is halfway through a federal court clerkship with Judge Piatt, which she is enjoying immensely. (I guess I should have put that in the past tense, since she must have finished the clerkship by now.) She is living in Brooklyn.

Nancy Rowden Brock was appointed assistant comptroller of Chittendon Bank in Burlington, Vt., back at the beginning of the year. She got an M.8.A., majoring in accounting and finance, from the University of Michigan, while she was working for Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, Mich., from 1977 to 1984. She and her husband, Thomas, live in Shelburne, Vt.

Steve Damron wrote, also back in February, that he was "sliding bits over the cutting edge" while he waits to cash in on stock options with another Silicon Valley success story. He saw Brian McGuire, a.k.a. Barney Levin. Apparently he is aspiring to stardom in Los Angeles and managing restaurants. Gail Fondahl is apparently teaching in Connecticut about "Very Northern Cultures." Brook Milligan married last summer. He and his wife, Katie, bummed around Europe before settling in Indiana. Steven is trying to convince Charles Baylis to remove his wife, Cynthia, from Sin City (which one is that?) and come to work with him at Sun Microsystems. At least back in February, Steven was offering a job to anyone who knew the difference between "grep" and "awk." If you're interested call him at 415/960-2752. He says that the most interesting thing he had learned in the previous year was that far beneath the ocean lives a sulphur-based life form whose only source of energy is volcanic heat.

Karen Kurkjian graduated from Boston University School of Medicine in May 1984 and is an intern at Tufts New England Medical Center in Boston. Her mother, who wrote, is hoping that everyone will start contacting her there rather than back at her parents' house.
