We have two kids, Adelaide, age 2 and Sean age 1. I've been putting my academic training to work reading bedtime stories and taking the kids to swimming lessons. A highlight of this year was attending Catherine Noon's ('91) wedding to Nicholas Hardy in England. Chris Valeo ('91) and I roomed together and we enjoyed catching up with Yadey Yawand-Wossen '91 and Will Yu '91. I am sad about missing reunion and wish everyone a great time. We'll be in Hong Kong for a while and I'm always happy to catch up with people coming through, so please look me up: sharonbesser@gmail.com. (See photo under "Photo Gallery").

He followed that by earning a Master's in Public Administration from the Woodrow Wilson School at Princeton University (1994) and then a law degree from the University of Chicago (1997). Since then, Richard has practiced environmental law and is currently working at the nonprofit Environmental Law and Policy Center in Chicago (with, among others, Kevin Brubaker '85 and Meleah Geertsma '98), where his work focuses on improving water quality and saving wildlife habitat. Prior to that, Richard spent five years at the nonprofit Openlands Project, also in Chicago, working on water quality and smart growth issues. In 2001, Richard married Karen Spronk (Calvin College, 1992) and they have a two-year old daughter, Amelia, who brings them much joy! Amelia is best friends with Sophia and Eleanor Gyuk, daughters of Richard's former roommate Geza Gyuk ('91) and Kathy Szoke (1992) who live just down the street. The Gyuk and Acker families get together all the time and are really happy to have some good Brown friends living so close by! Richard, unfortunately, was diagnosed with cancer in the spring of 2005 but has been tolerating chemotherapy very well and still works full time and enjoys a normal and active life. He is sorry he cannot be at the reunion but invites anyone who is in the Chicago area to look him up and say hi! (See photo under "Photo Gallery").

Lawrence Stern
(3/06)
Lawrence originally moved to Los Angeles for graduate school. Upon receiving his MFA in writing from UCLA's Department of Theater, Film, and TV, he decided to stay in California and work in the entertainment industry. Since then, he has won many awards for his writing (stage and screen) and held a variety of jobs - including teaching high school in Beverly Hills (very 90210!), working in film development, and being employed by two of the biggest talent and lit agencies (story departments).
One of Lawrence's dramatic screenplays ("Life Support") has attracted a lot of interest from talent and is currently being packaged - with a producer, casting director, and director attached. They are trying to raise funds now. He has just finished two new feature scripts for his manager. This year, Lawrence also completed his first short film as a writer and director (another short that he wrote but didn't direct played at festivals two years ago). He has also had three, successful, professional stage productions in LA.
Most recently, Lawrence has been hired to write a feature drama film by a German director. Lawrence has also just been hired to write a short comedy film by a second director (which will be filmed in April) and to "script-doctor" a third project. At the same time, he has been commissioned to write two treatments (one for film and one for TV) and to edit a crime novel. In his spare time, he still loves to perform and often plays the piano at parties. He can be reached at LHSnLA@aol.com and looks forward to seeing everyone at the reunion.
Christie O'Neil Harrison
(3/06)
Hello Class of '91ers: I am getting really psyched for reunion this year. And 5 years ago, I had not planned to attend the 15th, but a phone call from my dear friend and former roomie Leslie King prompted me to register, go, and get other people excited about coming back to Camp Bruno as well.
What's new with me? Well, basically, I am happily married to Marc Harrison '92, we live in Pawtucket with our two children, Claire and Evan, and my career path has been a long and winding road, to quote the Beatles. I am currently a part-time Spanish teacher in a Middle School in Woonsocket, RI and am searching for a full-time position doing the same. I also teach music in the afternoons, specifically piano, voice and guitar. I have tutored literacy, and also substitute teach in any subject area needed at a few different schools. For about 2 years I was our church organist, until our parish closed and merged with another. So I now get to sing in the choir (a treat for me), and am the substitute organist there. I live a very fulfilling life, but the path to getting here has not been easy.
I do hope that by the time we all see each other in May, I will have published my first book. I started writing it 12 years ago, and it has been in production since 9/11/2001. I don't want to give too much info on that away; suffice it to say that I'll be sure to post all that info and announce it when it comes out.
Additionally, I have recently begun songwriting. To be honest, I had no idea that I had that within me, and whether I'm any good at it remains to be seen. However, while my muse is with me I am taking advantage of this creative rush.
So that's basically about it with me. You'll have to wait until reunion to get any of the gory details if you're interested. I cannot WAIT to see everybody!!!!! (See photo under "Photo Gallery")

Jon's new pediatric practice celebrated its one-year anniversaryin July 2005 and things are going great. "We all are planning on making it to Providence for our 15th reunion. Hope to see you there!"

Jane Sharp
(12/04) I wanted to take a moment to share what I have been up to since May of '91. I am one of the 16% who went into medicine - OB/GYN in my case. During residency I met and then married an amazing man, Charley Rardin, who - 8 years and 2 children later - still makes my soul sing. Last year, we were seduced away from our entrenched state in Boston to Providence of all places. We thought we would miss Beantown, but find we love it here. Charley is on staff at Women and Infants' Hospital in the Urogynecology division. I am with a wonderful private practice group and get to teach residents as a member of the hospital's voluntary staff. We live close enough to theBrown stadium to listen in on games. Best of all, my 5-min commute and 30-hr work week have allowed me more time to spend with our two boys, Gavin 2-1/2yr and Miles 6mo. I am finally emerging from the communication black-out that was medical education and training. If any long lost friends wish to forgive me, I would love to hear from them at jane_sharp@cox.net. (see photo under "Photo Gallery")
Beth Soucar(12/04) On November 13, 2004 I married my husband Angelo in Collingswood, New Jersey. Three years ago, Angelo and I met and fell in love through ballroom dancing. As you can imagine, dancing was a major element at our wedding. We took many weeks of private lessons so that we could perform a Paso Doble for our guests. Some of our wedding photos are posted at www.bethandangelo.com. In the professional arena, I am in the data collection process for my doctoral dissertation in counseling psychology at Temple University. My research team and I are studying theeffectiveness of a psychotherapy approach called "Control Therapy" with African American outpatients at a clinic operated in North Philadelphia. We see this approach as engaging clients in a culturally sensitive and empowering process. This work has challenged me to grow both personally and professionally. We will be presenting some of our ideas at Columbia U. Teacher's College in February. (see photo under "Photo Gallery")
Dana Burd and Jeanie Chang(12/04) Dana Burd & I ran into each other at the tenth year reunion. He was in Oakland & I was in Philadelphia, so at first we emailed for a few months. Then there were many transcontinental visits, & the next year we moved to Boston together. Dana's VP-product management at a startup called Gotuit (software that indexes cable television content) & I’m a vascular surgeon (plumber of arteries & veins). We were engaged in July 2004 while sailing in the British Virgin Islands. We're contemplating a change--maybe humanitarian work in Southeast Asia or building a smokehouse in the midwest....

I have been teaching and writing in Milan for the past four years, but in November 2004 we will be packing up and moving back to the U.S. It will be a bittersweet move as we have been very happy here, but I am looking forward to being closer to friends and family.

Colin Credle
(5/04) After 9/11, I was approached to return to Tajikistan as Program Manager for Project HOPE's Humanitarian Aid Program. In the three years I have been working here, I've supervised the delivery of more than $62 million of donated medicine to hospitals all over Tajikistan. I also got married to a lovely young librarian named Zarinamokh Mirzoeva. My travel schedule remains zany, but fascinating. I spent a week in Kabul not too long ago, next week I am returning to Uzbekistan for more deliveries. My contract ends in November. Zarina and I plan on going home via Singapore, New Zealand, Hawaii and San Francisco if she can get all her visa ducks lined up.
