sorely missed! In June, Stacy
and I went to Craftsbury Scull-
ing Center, where we coinci-
dentally rowed with
Webster
Thompson ’16
and
Andrew
Thomson ’14
, thus forming
an SPS cabal (three Halcyons
and a Shattuck) that was quite
formidable. Also, I met up with
Nat Prentice ’65
recently in
Westchester County for a very
fun lunch. My husband is in the
same office as Nat. Small world!
Nat, of course, has all the scoop
on the entire building!

For the serendipity file,
Beth
Nolan
reports: “While waiting
for luggage at Keflavik airport
in Iceland, I had the good for-
tune to rendezvous with
Fanny
Opdycke
. Although I hadn’t
seen her in 30 years, Fanny was
instantly recognizable by her
elegant posture and beautiful
legs (some ballet muscles never
wither). We met for dinner in
Reykjavik the following eve-
ning, accompanied by Fanny’s
husband, Tom Feigelson, and
their two adorable children,
Zo
ë
and Max.
Zo
ë
studies
at
the School of American Ballet
(SAB), where her teacher is
Darci Kistler, a legendary bal-
lerina who frequently danced
with
Philip Neal ’86
at the New
York City Ballet. And so the
circle continues. Sometimes the
SPS community feels like one
enormous contra dance.”

Summer has flown by and a
new year has started. Here in
the San Francisco Bay Area,
Ly-
manHoward
organized a Form
of ’88 get-together, attended by
Caroline Gilman La Voie
,
Sam
Parker, Lizzie Callard
,
Scott
Faber,
and me. For the second
time in a row, Scott ditched his
very-pregnant wife to come
hang out with his formmates...
now
that
is dedication. Thanks
to Lyman for organizing!
Our own Hollywood actor,
Grinnell Morris
, writes: “I’m
shooting and starring in a film
called
96 Souls
. So much fun! I’ll
let you know if/when there is a
release date. As always, it de-
pends on how good the movie is
(which for independent features
is always a big question). I play a
research scientist. Hell, I went to
school to become one, and now
I’m playing one. I could tell you
more, but I’d be in breach of
my non-disclosure agreement.
You’ll just have to see the film
when it comes out, unless it’s
bad, in which case I’m changing
my name.” If the movie is no
good, don’t sweat it, Grinnell –
we’ll all just blame the director/
producer/screenwriter.
Chrissy Coughlin
welcomed
a baby girl, Caroline Crosby
Coughlin, in August.
Sally
Horchow
came for a visit and
Caroline did a beautiful job
posing for her photo with her
momand “Aunt Sally.”Welcome,
Caroline, and congratulations,
Chrissy!
Meg MacRae
got in touch
with a great synopsis of her
life in the music world: “Try
as I might to break away from
the tour life, it always seems to
find me again. I spent the sum-
mer in Europe working for Neil
Young and Crazy Horse and am
now doing a few festival shows
this month with John Mayer.
On the other hand, I have been
continuing to expand my film
career in between tours, hav-
ing produced an independent
film in 2012 called
Heart of the
Country
with country gal Jana
Kramer and TV veteran Gerald
McRaney and recently a TV
pilot called
Beachwood Char-
ter
. I also managed to get back
to school and got my master’s
in spiritual psychology. Dur-
ing that two-year period with
only minimal concert touring,
I had enough downtime to fi-
nally pursuemy long-neglected
creative inklings. I wrote and
recorded three of my own songs
(the EP is called
The Lovely
Ghost
). I really surprisedmyself
and I got to see what I was re-
ally capable of creatively when
Jocelyn (Jolly) Stamat ’87 and
husband Terry Paul Rossio,
welcomed twin boys, Julian
Sage on April 30, 11:59 p.m.,
and Paul Somerset on May 1,
12:02 a.m. Keeping Gotham
Safe since May 1, 2014.
