1959 to 1960Class Notes ArchivesPromotion '59 From February/March 2001 AALFNY Newsletter: **Rosette (Winger) Teitel Tucker emails us: "I took an early retirement incentive from teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) in Newtown H. S. in Elmhurst, Queens, NY, in 1995. Since then, besides doing volunteer work, I have studied to become an interior decorator, but decided not to pursue this second career. I've been a student teacher supervisor and a mentor teacher for new teachers, and I am currently coordinating a research project concerning better teaching practices to benefit ESL students. Besides helping the teachers involved in the project, I work with representatives of NYU and Brown University in conjunction with the Board of Education of the City of New York. My greatest accomplishment, however, is the forthcoming publication (July '01) of my book, THE HANDHOLDER'S HANDBOOK, A Guide for Caregivers of People with Alzheimer's or Other Dementias. My husband had vascular dementia, and I was desperate for guidance and assistance. In my support group, I said that there really should be a book out there to help us, the caregivers." From Winter 2002/2003 AALFNY Newsletter **Rosette Tucker Teitel (nee Winger) has had her book, "THE HANDHOLDER'S HANDBOOK, A Guide for Caregivers of People with Alzheimer's or Other Dementias" published by Rutgers University Press. It is available in all major bookstores and online. Rosette has done many book signings all over the country, and is available to speak to support groups. She writes: “Any feedback or suggestions would be welcome.” .......................................... Promotion '60 From November 1999 AALFNY Newsletter: **Dr. Neil Schachter is a Professor of Medecine at Mount Sinai School of Medecine and is the President of the American Lung Association of New York. He is married to childrens’ book author Deborah Chase. From November/December 2001 AALFNY Newsletter: **William Rodarmor works as a freelance writer and editor in Berkeley, California. The University of Chicago Press will publish his latest book translation, The Fate of the Mammoth, by French historian of science Claudine Cohen, in April. William's son Casey started college in Seattle last September. From Winter 2002/2003 AALFNY Newsletter **Marie Christine (Comte) Schurmann is currently living in the U.S. though it is only on a temporary basis as her husband will finish his stint at the World Bank in a few months. They plan to return to Italy where they have a house. **William Rodarmor is a journalist and editor in Berkeley, California. He's also a French literary translator. The University of Chicago Press published his 12th book translation this spring: "The Fate of the Mammoth," by historian of science Claudine Cohen. He is divorced, has a 19-year-old son named Casey, and regularly visits New York to see his old Columbia Law School girlfriend. He has stayed in touch with a number of Lycee friends, including Neil Schachter '60, Lisa (Freymann) Wassong '60, Liliane Frizzole '60, Joanna (Alexander) Grossman '62, and Beatrice (Wellner) Sikon '62. From Winter 2003/2004 AALFNY Newsletter ** William Rodarmor works as a freelance editor in Berkeley, California, but says he has been busiest as a French translator recently. He has just translated the first book of the popular "Mary Lester" series, and William hopes it's successful in English: there are 20 more books in the series! He also translated a wonderful children's book, The Old Man Mad About Drawing, by author-illustrator François Place, due out from David R. Godine in October. It recounts life in the 19th century with the famed Japanese printmaker, Hokusai. William says of the author, “Place is that rare beast, a man equally talented as a writer and illustrator.” William had previously translated Place’s novel, The Last Giants. He also has one editing project for Peachpit Press, a Berkeley computer book publisher. ** Dr. Neil Schachter was on "ABC News with Peter Jennings" on October 29 discussing the respiratory problems Southern Californians might suffer as a result of the wildfires there. |
