1982

I went fishing. I cast a net into the sea of cyberspace for news of '82s. Here's the strategy. Google "Dartmouth 1982" and all of its variations and see what fish are out there. My trolling paid off. Kurt Heim, fellow Richardson Rapier, lives in Acton, Massachusetts, with wife Carmel and 8-year-old daughter Claudia. Kurt is the director of the blood bank at Lahey Clinic in Burlington, Massachusetts. Some financial sharks were attracted to my Internet chum. Mike Harrell graduated from UCLA Law School and is a partner with Debevoise and Plimpton in Manhattan, where he co-heads the private equity group. He manages 65 other lawyers out of eight worldwide offices. Fellow Bones Gate brother Lee Apgar caught up with Bill Banks in San Francisco, where Bill has joined the ever-growing financial group of Merriman, Curhan and Ford as president of the wealth-management group. Lee is with RBS Greenwich Capital in Boston as a managing director in the mortgage and asset-backed group. Lee and wife Laura have three kids, Ingrid (8), Alex (7) and Tucker (5). Lee coaches youth lacrosse and will be getting sensitivity training from fellow coach Curtis Reed, who works with young lacrosse players in Rye, New York. Bill Scott, the only guy I knew who could put his entire mouth around a Dartmouth cup, celebrated 20 years with Sheppard Mullin in the finance practice group. He and Jill (Smith '82) continue to view stability as an asset. They have known each other since freshman year and have been married for 19 years. Their twin sons and high school sophomores Max and Mike are getting recruiting interest from UCLA and Pepperdine for water polo. Daughters Maryjo and Elizabeth are similarly situated for cross country and volleyball. Pam Singer litigates complex claims objections in Chapter 11 cases in San Francisco. Pam majored in Russian, speaks it fluently, is a confessed Russophile and is investigating the Russian business scene. She even lives in the Russian Hill section of San Francisco. Pam has a second-grade daughter and has been married for 12 years. Dan Lopresti is teaching at Lehigh after his Ph.D. at Princeton took him first to Brown and then to 10 years with a research lab in Princeton. Dan does pattern recognition research, including biometric security, bioinformatics and document analysis. Lately he has been "annoying various local government officials and voting machine vendors by hammering on the inherent vulnerabilities in the e-voting machines we're now being forced to use." Dan and his wife, Debbie '81, have a daughter, Courtney, who is finishing her senior year in high school and will be attending Smith next year. She's interested in East Asian studies and already speaks Japanese quite well. Dan Geschwind is in Santa Monica with wife Sandy and kids Eli, Maya and Jonah. Dan is an academic neurologist and professor of genetics at UCLA, where he also directs the Center for Autism Research. His lab uses genetic approaches to find neuropsychiatric disease genes, so as to develop a better understanding of how these diseases arise and to find better treatments. Owosso, Michigan, native and Nature Conservancy trustee Tom Cook began his 460-mile hike in June across Michigan's Upper Peninsula to raise funds for the Nature Conservancy in Michigan. Tom began his journey at the Mackinac Bridge and planned to finish in early August at Horseshoe Harbor located at the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula. Well, time to pull in the nets. For the fish that got away, I'll be back.
