1990

90 If you were casting a play, who would you select to play the part of the "furry blue blob" named Fierce Beast? Well, I suppose the answer is Jessica SilverHayden, who currently plays that part, as well as that of a giant cat and a ten-year-old female human being, in three different shows used to educate school children about AIDS, good health, and violence. Jessica works fulltime for Kaiser Permanente's educational theater programs. She and her troupe travel to different schools within a two-hour radius of Washington, D.C., to present free educational shows using puppets and costumed actors and actresses.

Jessica reports a continued state of "marital bliss" with husband Will Hayden '88 been married four years as of May.The two live in a townhouse in Rockville, Md., with two cats (but no kids, yet). Jessica will definitely be at our reunion. Eve Kushner will soon be a published author. Her book on the emotional experience of abortion, tentatively titled After anAbortion, has been accepted by a publisher and is due to be published in 1996. Several of the interviews for the book were done on the Dartmouth campus in the fall of 1990. Eve and husband Haroon Chaudhri, Thayer '92, are living in Berkeley, Calif.

September 10 is the date David Greenberg will marry Sheryl Reich, a criminaldefense attorney in New York City. "Three years of courting have paid off," he wrote. "We met in either Rome or Central Park, depending on who you talk to, and I asked her in Naples, under the stars and Mt. Vesuvius."

From the Internet this month comes TonyJones (YouthWorks@aol.com). He's the executive director of Youth Works Inc., a non-prof- it that runs service and mission trips for church youth groups. He plans to follow up his 1993 M.Div. degree from Fuller Theological Seminary with a Ph.D. in systemic theology at some point in the future. He saw Elizabeth Burnett and Aidan O'Connell at Pete Sommerness's wedding in Duluth, Minn., last fall.

Following the snowboarding industry from a business perspective is John Stouffer (transnow@aol.com). He has returned to his old job as managing editor of Snowboarding Business magazine. He returned to the journal after two years at another not-just-snow- boarding one because the industry was growing so fast. John's living in Oceanside, Calif., and would like to hear from old friends. His address is 419 South Clementine St., Oceanside, CA 92054; telephone (619) 721-8823.

Our very own Brad Braddock was engaged recently to his high-school sweetheart and will be married in California on Labor Day.

My apologies to those who were mentioned a couple issues back as being involved in the play Stupid Kids, directed by our own Steve Cosson. I read Variety's punctuation incorrectly, and thus attributed the wrong credits to Steve, the director, Chris Hogan, the set designer, and Julie Kalish, the costume designer. Anyway, this gives me the opportunity to report that Steve's company, Smart Mouth, will produce another play in July, titled In the Dark. Steve tells me the play will run at the 450 Geary Theater in San Francisco, Calif. In an unrelated event, Chris was in New Orleans, La., in April with AlikeLowenthal, Karen Euler, and other '90s to celebrate Kendall Genre's wedding.

I become nostalgic as I look at the piles of ripped-open envelopes many of you have sent me, beside the dust piles lying in the nether regions of my desktop. My five-year term is almost at an end, with one more column to go. I have enjoyed serving this class; I hope you've had good reading. The depth of feeling I have witnessed among our classmates, both for the College and for each other, has made my efforts worthwhile.
