What a good thing it was to join. I left NYC 10 years ago this October for the sunny shores of England and the LFNY gang seemed to scatter to the four winds. Now I know that you all still exist! When I left I went to med school in Bristol, UK, and graduated in '97. I am now specializing in Paediatrics (UK spelling!) and infectious diseases. I married an English boy - should I say chap? -, Jonathan, in July 2000 in Italy and am now living in the countryside in Leicestershire. A far cry from NYC! Would love to hear from the Promotion de '91." **Marc Jacquand is now in New York, working for the UN's Microfinance Unit. From March/April 2002 AALFNY Newsletter: **Marina Treves writes: I live in Paris where I am the Assistant Coordinator of the International Diabetes Federation Congress (taking place in Paris, August 2003.) Being a diabetic myself for 15 years, I have finally been able to integrate an association with an important mission for all people affected with this illness -kind of a dream come true for the past several years. Working for a cause, helping people who are suffering and fighting for the rights of people with diabetes is truly a reward. I am not married yet and have no children, but let's take one thing at a time! Would like to hear from my classmates, wherever they are and if they remember me!» **Pamela (Guiraud) Darondeau nous écrit : « Voici quelques nouvelles de la petite Pamela Guiraud (j'ai eu mon bac en 1991, mais j'ai quitté NY en 1986). J'ai fait des études d'ingénieur agroalimentaire (food science engineer), j'ai travaillé 5 ans au marketing carrefour (grand distributeur, retail service) et je travaille depuis peu chez Heinz où je fais du marketing sur les marques Heinz et Weight Watchers, toujours à Paris. Je me suis mariée en 1997 avec un charmant garçon qui s'appelle Hervé Darondeau. Nous avons la chance d'avoir 2 beaux enfants: Alexis, né en janvier 1999 et Perrine, née en juillet 2001. Nous habitons le 11ème arrondissement à Paris. J'ai deux frères : François Guiraud ’87 qui travaille chez Lehman Brothers à Londres et Laurent Guiraud ‘96 qui fait des études de Droit à Paris.» From Winter 2002/2003 AALFNY Newsletter **Alejandro Muñoz-Ledo writes: “Hello from Mexico! Actually, I left the Lycée in late 1985, but was unable to complete my ‘premier cycle’ (12ème-5ème). I am now living in Mexico City, working for a major commercial bank (Bancomext), married and have two baby boys. I remember my classmates quite well, and have actually tried to contact them (unsuccessfully I might add!) The only person I kept in touch with for a while was Carine Salvy, who was working in New York for Paribas until about 2 years ago. Anyway, I am glad to be back in touch with the Lycée community, and not at all surprised to find Francoise Plusquellec as class secretary! Finally, I was really glad to read Marina Treves’ note. Congratulations to her! By the way, will there be (or has there been) a class reunion? Is there one in the making?” **Marcel Agueros writes: « I am currently between my 2nd and 3rd years of graduate school at the University of Washington pursuing a PhD in astronomy, and am spending two months in Japan as part of an NSF summer program. My plan to go to every World Cup from 1994 on is still on track, as I managed to get a ticket (at less than face value!) for the Brazil-Turkey semifinal. » **Karine (Leonhard) Beers writes : « I attended the Lycee Francais from 1986 to 1989. I would have graduated with my class in 1991, but moved back to France and went to the Lycee International de Saint Germain en Laye my senior year. I went to law school at Nanterre in Paris and graduated William & Mary in Virginia with a LLM and currently work in a law firm in North Carolina whose main practice is criminal law. I would appreciate hearing from those that I knew back then and in particular Corinne Hascouet ’91 with whom I would pass notes in English class!» From Winter 2003-2004 AALFNY Newsletter ● Marc Jacquand writes: “I am now with the United Nations' Special Unit for Microfinance in New York. After graduating from the Lycée in 1991, I went back to France to study at HEC until ‘96, then moved back to NY where I worked on Crédit Lyonnais' equity trading floor before going back to school to get a Masters in International Affairs at Columbia University. After a brief - one year - stint in DC for a microfinance organization, I moved back to NY in September 01 to join the UN. Traveling is good, but I’m trying to keep it to a minimum now that I am married, to Rhona, whom I met back at Crédit Lyonnais. Hope all is well for class of ‘91.” ● For information about Marina Trèves, see Patricia (Hesse) Khosrosian ’66. ● Christel (Dubus) Windenberger is a Communication Manager at Michelin in Clermont Ferrand. ● Frédéric Bouhet writes: “I'm still living in Paris, unfortunately unemployed after working in the web business.

Olives, puisque j'ai finalement décidé de suivre la même voie que lui. J'enseigne à l'université Paris X (à Nanterre, près de La Défense) et je travaille également dans l'édition. Je serais heureux d'avoir des nouvelles de tous les anciens de 1991 (Marcel, Marcelle, Yann, Zouzou, Maja...)” ● Stanislas Lenack nous ecrit qu’il est “Educateur de la Protection Judiciaire de la Jeunesse (Ministère de la Justice). Je suis actuellement attaché à la direction régionale de l'Ile-de-France.Sincères pensées et une bonne année à tous.» From November 2004 AALFNY Newsletter ● Pamela (Guiraud) Darondeau writes: "My husband and I are planning on going to NY this summer, and we are studying the possibility of coming to live in the States (not necessarily in NY). We both are food science engineers (ingénieur agroalimentaire). I work in marketing at Heinz (ketchup), Hervé, my husband, works for Bourjois Chanel (makeup and perfume)." She also asks: "Would you have any advice regarding web sites, people to contact... to find a job in the US, hopefully for both of us? I'm willing to start networking. We would like to move as of Sept 2004, since my husband finishes an MBA in June." ● Manuel da Graça wrote: "Hy to all of u who still remember!
