April 2005

Chris Giza, and his wife, Rosanne, had a son, Vincent Edward Giza, on May 27, 2004. Vincent has already visited Yosemite National Park this summer with them and with "Uncle" John Hueston '"Auntie" Mabelle Drake and their 4 kids, Tara, Ryan, Kinsale and Shea. Chris is a pediatric neurologist at UCLA. His subspecialty is pediatric head trauma. Tony Stearns wrote, “Amanda Reed was to be married on September 11 (gulp!) in California (I think).  She (and presumably her new husband) is/are currently living in San Francisco. Alicia (Macri) Lindgren lives in Wilton, CT. and is very much into buying antiques at estate sales, to which she brings her kids:  Liza (8) and Ben (6).  Apparently Liza didn't get the concept, as she inquired, "Mommy, do you think we'll ever have enough money to buy new stuff?"  Very nice! Ann Heidenreich is living in NYC with husband, John, of 15 years. They have two beautiful daughters, Claire (7) and Grace (2 1/2). She often runs into Julie Cassesa as their daughters are classmates at Nightingale-Bamford School. Ann has been working at JPMorgan Chase in Credit Portfolio Research for the last 6 years - specializing in Retail and Consumer Products. We escape regularly to our weekend home in Duxbury, MA (4 hours away), and to Killington VT in the winter. She saw Jennifer Key for celebration of her 40th in Red Bank,NJ. Liz McClintock is loving life in Santa Barbara, California. She is a partner in a small for-profit firm doing negotiation training, coaching, and consultation.  She works from home, which is great.  Her main project is in Burundi (Central Africa) where she is working with the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars (Washington DC) on a program supporting leadership training for folks involved in the peace process.   On average she spends a couple of weeks in Burundi every other month, training and advising either the political leadership, the military, or local community leaders.  It is exciting and rewarding.  Nancy (Burke née Mason) married Steve Wallace and has a baby named Blaise Cameron Wallace (1). Her law firm was bought, so now she is a shareholder with Akerman Senterfitt Law Firm in Tallahassee, Florida.  Nancy Stein Woolf let me know that Benton Routh got married last summer.  Many ‘86s witnessed this momentous occasion: Beverly Bruni Zambarrano, Sarah Page, Debbie Weitzman Cabre, Mark Gies, and their spouses and children, as well as many ‘87s.  It was a fun mini reunion wedding held on Long Island.  The ceremony itself was beautiful until the Good Year blimp flew by on its way to the U.S. Open and interrupted the ceremony.  A great time was had by all and we even got in a refrain of Men of Dartmouth at the end of the night. Beth Kostman Cranston is an architect living on the Vineyard.  She has two children. Beth Riley St. Raymond moved to Boston from the Vineyard in September, 2003, and is in Marketing with Gillette. She has two daughters. Paul Shippee told me that Erik Warga and his wife, Emmanuell, have three children Marguerite (6) and Lucy (4) and baby Juliet.  Karin Rosemblatt was one of 46 women and men accepted as 2004-2005 fellows at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.
