Pre-Reunion Round-Up (and Final Post!)
Hi folks, it's been quite awhile since I posted here, so there are a ton of class-related stories to recap. Now that much of the class is able to catch up on links of interest via Facebook, Twitter, and so on, and with our next reunion imminent, it's time to retire this blog. But first, one final huge batch of recent noteworthy links featuring classmates Rob Hyland, John D'Agostino, Sam Sommers, Noah Harlan, Byron Wetzel, Matt McGough, Kevin Lee, Chase Coleman, Robbi Behr, Matt Swanson, Fiona Maazel, Hussain Aga Khan and David Turner:
Many of us watched the Bengals-Texans wild card playoff game in January. But how many of us knew that Rob Hyland produced the telecast?
While his interview with Bill O'Reilly occurred several years ago, John D'Agostino's thoughts on oil have been revisited thanks to current discussions about gas prices. Check out John at 2:08 of the first video contained in this link.
Sam Sommers' book Situations Matter was published in December, and has received strong reviews. Buy your own copy today!
Check out the trailer for Return, a movie directed by Eph professor Liza Johnson, produced by Noah Harlan, and starring Michael Shannon, who is represented by Byron Wetzel (Eph synergy at work!).
This video of Matt McGough discussing his time as a Yankees bat boy was featured on the Williams Sports Information page.
Another great video, Kevin Lee's video essay on the "Spielberg Face," was featured on the New York Times website.
These two articles on Chase Coleman delve into his incredibly successful investment strategy.
This feature on Matt Swanson and Robbi Behr describes their latest creative endeavor, a build-your-own-President flip book. Speaking of Robbi, check out her drawing on the cover on the September edition of the Williams Alumni Review.
Congratulations to Fiona Maazel, who sold her second book, Woke Up Lonely, a "sweeping commentary on loneliness in America featuring a cult leader, his ex-wife, and the four people he accidentally takes hostage," which will be published next Spring.
You can find the transcript of a speech delivered by Hussain Aga Khan regarding deforestation in Kenya here.
Finally, be sure to read David Turner's satirical take on his role in the recent Broadway shot, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever. You can catch several glimpses of David in this brief highlight reel from the show. David was also featured in a more serious interview in Playbill.
Hope to see everyone in June at reunion!
