Brooke Lloyd, Mark DeVito
,
and I traveled from the West
Coast to meet
Peope Pachios
,
Mike Getz
, and
Neill “Sanford”
Livingston
in Brooklyn on Au-
gust 22. The occasionwas Neill’s
marriage to Sara Legenhausen.
The black-tie wedding, held
at the Liberty Warehouse, was
exactly the type of elegant affair
we’ve come to associate with
Sanford – a fitting celebration
of their love surrounded by
a veritable who’s who of New
York’s ruling class, executed
with an understated, blue-
blooded exuberance.

couple years has been fabulous,

I’m still at Rosetta Stone, doing

other D.C.-dwelling Paulies.”

Save the date for our 15th
reunion, May 29-31. Hope to
see many formmates then! The
latest from me is that I moved
back to San Francisco fromNew
York City in May. I’m work-
ing for a jewelry subscription
startup, RocksBox, and enjoying
re-acquainting myself with SF,
which has changed a lot since I
left in 1996 for SPS. Would love
to connect with Paulies in the
Bay Area!
