Lost records not a problem. 039765 December 11, 2003 a vanilla shell.” They have the same parameters that their real estate people are sent out in the field with and they rarely deviate from those parameters. That’s why you see most of them in shopping malls, because they can get their square box and relocate half the distance between a Gap store and a Filene’s and all these other criteria that… they have developed. … So it’s a matter of convincing them to come? It’s all in the way it’s presented. We’ve been successful in redeveloping the Chase Block, the Bond Building… I mean, I know there was controversy surrounding Planned Parenthood, but we took an old auto parts store and turned it into a very beautiful building and the neighbors are very pleased with their neighbor. Even though we went through all that, those are all things that are redeveloping downtown. They are diverse in their uses, diverse in their tenants. This kind of diversity is what attracts a lot of people … if you were to consider downtown Manchester between Valley and Bridge streets as being a shopping mall and somehow get all those merchants and landlords to pull together and market it that way, you’d have a vibrant retail sector downtown just like in the Mall of New Hampshire. Bob Shaw, former Manchester Mayor If there was an issue facing Manchester, Bob Shaw had an opinion about it. Father of four and husband of wife Lorraine, Shaw owned two Manchester businesses (Shaw’s Service Station and later Bob Shaw’s Italian Sandwich Shop), was active in the Rotary and served two terms are Manchester’s mayor. He spoke to Amy Diaz about his life in Manchester and his time in city and local politics for the Dec. 11, 2003, edition of the Hippo. Part of that interview reran in the Aug. 19, 2004, edition, a few days after Shaw died in a traffic accident. He was 70. In the 2003 interview, Shaw spoke about his family — his four children and his 11 grandchildren. I think that’s what you strive to reach is a point that you are the grandfather. That they’re around you and you talk to them. In a given week, I probably talk to half of them…. My grandchildren get all As on the honor roll, almost all of them…. He and Lorraine said they stayed together for almost half a century in part because it’s what they promised each other they would do. It takes forgiving. If you have somebody that’s so opinionated, that knows everything, that’s always right, you can see who’d have to be the forgiving person. … The one thing that we have going is that we’re thankful. And that we never argue about money. Part of what Shaw felt made him a good mayor was his management and problemsolving skills. My only ability, probably, is that I can see what something should look like. OK, now I’ve got to figure out how to make it look like that. When I came in, I could see how the budget should be written. … Simple solutions to complex problems. Shaw said one of the first projects he tackled as mayor was fixing the schools, which suffered from neglect. I got the city workers to identify the solution. I used almost all inside talent. I didn’t pay people to come in and give us advice. So this inside talent worked out really, really well. These people were waiting a long time to tell you what was wrong and how to fix it. I go to the school, why isn’t the school clean? Well, mayor, we can’t clean the school if we don’t have solvents, if all you have is water and a mop …. Teachers would have to buy their own window shades. Barbara Lawler, actress Michelle Saturley spoke with Barbara Lawler for the April 22, 2004, issue of the Hippo. Lawl- April 22, 2004
er was named Best Actress in a Musical in the 2003 NH Theatre Awards for her role in a local production of Ragtime. Though a mildmannered manager at a local bank by day, Lawler, a Bow resident, acted in local theatrical productions and did local and national television commercials and radio voiceovers. Lawler performed in the Actorsingers production of Cats in 2006. How did you get into acting? My mother always called me “Sarah Bernhardt” as a kid, so I think I was a pretty dramatic kid. I started acting in high school, and I was always singing in the chorus. The bug really hit, and I decided I was going to go to college to study acting. Then my life took a different turn, and instead I got married and had a family. When the kids were little, I was busy, so I didn’t have time to do anything else. But as they got older, I started auditioning again. The first auditions I did were for Stage One, back when George Piehl still had his summer season over at the Palace Theatre. I did a few more shows there, and then over at Actorsingers in Nashua, and it just expanded from there. When you were raising your children, how did you find ways to keep the creative spark? I’ve always been an entertainer. And when your kids are little, you are so busy, sometimes you just don’t think about anything else. But I guess I found small ways to keep that alive. I did a lot of crafts with the kids, and we sang constantly. Music was a big part of their upbringing. I did a lot of sewing, too. I used to make matching outfits for the kids for holidays and such. It’s funny, because they look at old photographs now and they say, what were you thinking? … How do you keep the work in the theater from interfering with your family and work life? Sometimes it does. That’s why my family ended up being involved in theater with me. … That’s why my husband got involved with running the sound at a lot of the shows I’m in. As a matter of fact, if I’m not in a show, sometimes we will run sound together. I’ve learned a lot about that aspect of theater that I never would have known otherwise. … And my son Sean was actually in a few shows with me when he was little. Frank Guinta, republican politician Frank Guinta, a former Manchester alderman, surprised many when in November 2005 he beat incumbent Bob Baines in the city’s mayoral election. Will Stewart talked to Guinta for the Nov. 17, 2005, edition of the Hippo, about his plans for the city, which he would go on to serve as mayor for four years. He left office earlier this year and is currently a candidate in the Republican primary for the state’s 1st Congressional District. On a scale of one to 10, and be honest, how surprised were you that you won? We looked at this race, from the beginning, as a race we thought we could win. We also knew that we had to run an almost flawless campaign. We started to see, in October, the hard work begin to pay off because you could see the momentum shift. I think by the time we got to the “6-55-3” message, we really started to see people galvanizing around it. We were elated. I was thrilled, the team was thrilled. We always thought that it was neck and neck so, you know, we were happy that we won, but we were not shocked by any stretch. Do you feel you have a mandate from the people? Well, I think the appropriate term is that people clearly want change. And the fact that 6-55-3 — six years of tax hikes, 55-percent increase in violent crime and three failing high schools — resonated. Elections are more about issues and those are the issues that I ran on and those are things that I’m going to deliver changes on in the city. And I think I have the support of the city. … What’s your opinion of government’s role in development, particularly the public-private partners that have become popular as of late? I think the role of government is to foster an environment that allows the private sector to succeed. And we need to foster economic development and growth in the community. We also want to be mindful of what we want our community to be ... you cut taxes through economic development, it’s tax base expansion. And you have to have a plan in place ... where development occurs for the betterment of the community so we can use that tax base expansion for tax relief and provide a more diverse business community. 15 November 17, 2005 June 22, 2006 deborah Scranton, filmmaker Deborah Scranton, a documentary filmmaker, was behind one of the most compelling early films about the war in Iraq — The War Tapes, which was released in 2006. This movie told the story of the troops by giving the three soldiers cameras and letting them record what they saw. Richie Victorino spoke with Scranton, as well as the three soldiers — Mike Moriarty, Steve Pink and Zach Brazzi — for the June 22, 2006, issue of the Hippo. Scranton’s newest film is Earth Made of Glass, which had its world premiere at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival in the world documentary competition. The film is about Rwandan President Paul Kagame’s efforts to expose the truth about the Rwandan genocide and genocide survivor Jean-Pierre Sagahutu’s journey to find out what happened to his father. Filmmakers are notorious for being control freaks. Was it difficult to give up the cameras? I guess the way I looked at it was, it was a very conscious decision to never allow myself, or anyone from the production team, to go to Iraq. Because if any one of us went it would have immediately diminished what the soldiers were creating. It would become about us. When I went down to Fort Dix and I hopped out in front of 180 guys and told them about my vision I made them a promise. I said that we would tell their story wherever it took us, through their own eyes and their own words. Why do you think the soldiers were able to trust you and your vision? I think in any documentary film, a lot of it is based on trust and relationship. The film isn’t about the Internet but it couldn’t have been made without it. It allowed us to talk back and forth with each other and discuss the process. … Do you find that the film achieved what you wanted it to achieve? [pauses] I’m really proud of it. I meant what I said that I gave them my promise that we would tell their story, wherever it took us, no matter what. Was there anything about the footage that you were surprised about? I was surprised by the visceral experience of a 360-degree war. Once you lock and load and leave the base, the frontline is wherev- LaValley Farms. NH Grown. Period.
