Not all who pass through Hanover live charmed lives. Such is the case for New Hampshire's own four-event skier, Frank Hannah. He entered Dartmouth interested in mathematics and skiing. His family is synonymous with skiing and Dartmouth; his father, brother, a son and five other relatives are graduates; sister Joan skied in the Olympics in 1960 and 1964. Frank focused on Nordic events and joined his teammates in TriKap. Post-graduation he taught math and coached the ski team at Hanover High. He returned to Dartmouth to obtain an M.A. in mathematics. Love of teaching lured him to Phillips Academy as math teacher and ski coach. He and his Scottish-born wife Janette were on-call 24/7 as dorm proctors and parents of their own three children. In 1978 they opened their house and hearts to four nieces and nephews, offspring of Frank's deceased sister. On sabbatical at St. Andrew's (Scotland) he wrote a statistics text. In 2003 while lecturing, he stepped back, could not comprehend what he'd written on the whiteboard and knew he had to give up his second love. Months later he received the diagnosis, Alzheimer's. It progressed rapidly and he has been institutionalized since 2009. Janette visits him daily from her Hanover home. She's most appreciative of the attention received from Frank's Dartmouth friends, including Bob Brayton, Tom Clark, John Peltonen, Ed Williams and Jeff Pitchford. The Hannahs have three sons, Gordon, Stewart '90 and Andrew and two grandsons.
Jim Cornehlsen followed his father John '29, a psychologist and very active alumnus. Jim majored in English and minored in psychology. Experience in high school chorus and a quartet helped his entrée into the Injunaires. His first career was in marketing and sales for, among others, GE and CBS. While on assignment in Mexico City he joined the city's only English-speaking theatre. In his second career he was a recruiter in New York City. There he linked up with the University Glee Club of NYC, which has semi-annual concerts at Lincoln Center. Wife Carole is president of the Avon Foundation. They are active sailors, bike riders and skiers. They regularly go on adventure travel excursions. Jim has two sons, Jamie and Josh.
Extrovert extraordinaire and first-born son of German immigrants, Tony Kaufmann was interested in Dartmouth by family friends whose sons were in Hanover. Access to skiing convinced him and he competed in giant slalom as a freshman. Later he devoted his extracurricular time to the Players as performer and director. He was in Army ROTC for two years in mountaineering. With his multi-lingual, multi-cultural background he was readily impressed by Professor Harp, and quickly selected anthropology as his major. Post Dartmouth he continued his studies at Penn and Oxford (B.Litt.) before going to Penn's law school. He's been a litigator and international law specialist, general counsel and international operating executive for Grolier Publishing. He owns two specialty publishing houses (Abaris and Eastbridge). He and Marianna have a daughter Alexis, a son Matthew and a grandchild on the way. He stays in touch with Joel Deweese and Randy Beers.
