(Editor's note,  The following was received from Elliot on 6/3/07)
I attended Horace Greeley 4th through 7th grades (1948-1951) – was taught by Miss Dykeman, Miss Moore and Miss Troyanovich. During those years and through high school, Dave Carlson, who lived close by, was my best friend in Chappaqua. I remember Dave’s brother, Ron, giving us rides to school in the rumble seat of his convertible.

After two years of 8th grade – pneumonia intervened – I spent four years at Hotchkiss, four years at Haverford College, a year in Harvard’s MAT program, three years of teaching English at Penn Charter in Philadelphia, and twenty-seven years of teaching English and computer science at Mt. Greylock Regional High School in Williamstown, MA. I married in 1962, raised four daughters, and divorced in 2000. Since then I have remarried, lived in Concord, MA, worked for Facing History, and retired to Lincoln, VT, close to Ripton, where I attended Middlebury’s Bread Loaf in the 60s.

Phyllis, my wife, also a teacher in Weston, MA, finished her career in the admissions office at Shady Hill School in Cambridge, and, ironically, was a classmate of Jane Henzel Kett at Wheaton.
