1993

Fall is here and winter hot on its tail. I sure am wishing for lots of mail to keep the home fires burning.

On the 18th of June Michael Pevzner married Mariya Kravkova. The newlyweds met at Tufts Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.They were married in a beautiful ceremony at Woodrow Wilson's residence in Washington, D.C. I'm not quite sure how this worked or if it had any kind of connection to diplomacy, statesmanship or forensics or if it portends any inclination of future presidential aspirations (aren't we all about to be ageeligible for running for the presidency?). Wilson was a Princeton boy; has there been a Dartmouth president? Anybody other than Michael forming exploratory committees?

Eager for "real seasons" (which right about now he may be reconsidering), Clent Boudreaux left eight years in the monoseason of Anzonas climate for four-season Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. No word on whether his wife, Soula, and kids Alexa (6), Ethan (4) and Andreas (1) are equally enthusiastic. Clent is also eager to reconnect with any and all East Coasters he may have neglected while serving his time out West (boudreac@ excite.com).

Unfortunately, my mailbag is nearly dry, cant we do better than this?

Erik Ochsner sent news that Chris Baang is an active pianist living in Montreal and Bo Willsey has moved to Seattle. Erik was brief, and didn't say anything about himself, but his e-mail signature indicates that he is the music director of the SONOS Chamber Orchestra, which is based in Manhattan. Check out their Web site: www.sonoschamberorch.org. Erik's worked with Tan Dun and Yo-yo Ma, among others.

And that's it! Sad, but true.

Send me your news, please!
