First two weeks in the south (Lyon, Vence, Avignon, Nice, St. Tropez) and then two weeks in Paris. For the first time we rented an apartment in Paris in the 6eme Arrondisement. Our apartment faced Rue de Buci, our favorite street in Paris. While my wife Carol took classes at Alliance Francaise (having taken private lessons for two years from a teacher in Pittsburgh), Carol decided to learn French at her somewhat late stage in life and really enjoys it. At the same time I worked out of Reed Smith's Paris office on Boulevard Henri Poincare. I also traveled on the Eurostar to London and made two presentations at our London office and another one in our Paris office. Paris is much less frenetic than London, which is fairly close in speed to New York. The pace of life in Paris is much more reasonable and humane The food in France was as usual, so enjoyable. There is a lot Americans can learn from the French in terms of the pace of life. We can't wait to return." ● "Sarah Jane Freymann has been a literary agent since the 1970s and is the founder and president of the Sarah Jane Freymann Literary Agency, LLC.....The Agency has a strong commitment to serious self-help and spiritual books, with titles that have sold more than 100,000 copies in the U.S. and throughout Europe and Asia.

Reed Smith has over 1500 lawyers globally. Since Reed Smith has a Paris office, I plan to get to visit that office on a number of occasions. The firm also has over 100 lawyers in Hong Kong with a need for bank regulatory expertise, so I intend to visit there as well. I have been very fortunate to have another career, and also please my wife by not having lunch at home." ----- From December 2007 AALFNY Newsletter ----- ● Michael Bleier wrote: “I retired from Mellon Financial Corporation as General Counsel and Executive Vice President, after 14 years as General Counsel. I was with Mellon for almost 25 years. Since my wife informed she did not have a luncheon menu, I joined Reed Smith's Pittsburgh Office as a partner in its Financial Services Group practice. With over 1500 lawyers worldwide and over 300 in London and others in a number of key locations worldwide, including Paris, I thought it would be fun to continue the practice of law. Also, with many junior lawyers, I thought I could bring valuable insights to them and help in a mentoring role. Financial services is constantly evolving and I still look forward to every day at the office.” Editors' note: Michael has been published several times, including: Co-author, Federal Reserve Board’s staff study "Bank Holding Company Acquisition of Thrift Institutions"; "Commercial Banking as the ‘Line of Commerce’ and the Role of Thrifts," Banking Law Journal; "Operational Risk in Basel II," North Carolina Banking Institute (April 2004) ----- From June 2007 AALFNY Newsletter ----- ● Umberto Plaja is Ambassador of Italy to Kampala.

My parents moved to Tulsa because of my father's job and because I was 16 when I started at NYU, I moved with them. I had the good fortune of having as my roommate Hafiz Nawabi, who was from Kabul, Afghanistan. He now lives in the Washington, DC area and we have remained extremely close, attending each family's special events. I graduated from Georgetown Law in 1965 and studied for almost two years at Johns Hopkins' SAIS, which I left to go into my brief military service. In the interim I got engaged after four months and married in October 1966, and Phil Schreiber, a Lycee classmate, was best man at my wedding. My wife is a writer of corporate histories and we have three children and eight grandchildren. I worked at the FTC for about three and a half years and then went to the Federal Reserve Board's Legal Division in Washington, DC where I stayed for eleven years. I left as Assistant General Counsel and joined Mellon in 1982. I have been here ever since and have been General Counsel for the holding company and bank since 1992. I have been on the Senior Management Committee since 1992. As General Counsel I am responsible for the day-to-day operations of Mellon's Legal Derpartment and supervise a staff of 69 lawyers at 12 locations. During my time at Mellon I have been responsible for the legal aspects of the Corporation's expansion in both the banking and nonbanking areas, regulatory matters, dealings with the Congress and state legislatures. I was responsible for Mellon's good bank/bad bank transaction as well as the Boston Company and Dreyfus acquisitions, and in dealings with Federal regulators on Basel II. I have also authored or co-authored a number of articles that have appeared in various law school publications. For five years (1994 to 1998) I was chairman of the Lawyers Council of the Financial Services Roundtable, a national trade association representing major financial service organizations. I was also vice chairman of the American Bankers Association's Bank Counsel Committee. I am also on the board of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestar as well as the Civic Light Opera in Pittsburgh. My wife and I will celebrate our 40th Anniversary this October 9, 2006." ----- 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.” ----- From February/March 2001 AALFNY Newsletter ----- Rosette (Winger) Teitel Tucker wrote: "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." |
