Beth Haffenreffer Scholle tells us
that, “After 19 years at Park School
(ten for me and nine for Liza ’10),
Park has become an important part of
me. I know I’ll really miss being a
‘current parent’ next year! Well, at
least we can all still call ourselves
‘ALUMNI.’” Shady Hartshorne and
his wife, Laurie Ellis, took a road trip
through Alabama. “We went to
Huntsville, Birmingham, Montgomery,
and Mobile and took in a
AA baseball game in each city. I got
to throw out one of the first pitches
for the Huntsville Stars’ game.”

Nancy Nayor Battino enjoyed a
quiet summer in Los Angeles. She
had a wonderful reunion dinner in
L.A. a few months ago with Pharibe
Wise and Didi Belash. Nancy says
that her “latest casting project,
BANDSLAM, a musical film starring
Vanessa Hudgens (of High School
Musical fame) and Lisa Kudrow,
opened August 14th. An adorable
film that’s perfect for a teen audience—enjoy!”

After six years at St. Paul’s School in
Concord, New Hampshire, Barbara
Talcott loves her career as a school
chaplain and teacher and her family
loves the boarding school lifestyle. “I
was ordained by the Episcopal Bishop
of New Hampshire in February, so
my family and I will be moving to St.
Mark’s School in Southborough,
Mass., where I will take on the job of
head chaplain and chair of the Religion
Department. It’s a far better
commute for my husband, Doug,
who has been driving to Cambridge.
All is well with our children, now
aged 21 to 12, as well as with our parents.
We are truly blessed.”

Marshall Berenson and his wife,
Kathy, sold their floral and event
design business of 18 years. “We are
both studying acting now,” Marshall
writes. “A salute to Ms. Marmarchev
(I think I spelled her name right!). It
was huge fun and very challenging.”
Juliet Lamont reports that her watershed
restoration/protection work in
Berkeley is still going strong. “It is
even more compelling with the focus
on climate change, and (thankfully!) a
new federal administration.” Juliet
traveled to Yellowstone in the winter
for outdoors & wolves, and Panama
in the spring for birds, marine
wildlife, and rainforests. Congratulations
to Stephen Thomas and his
partner, Holli Lopatowski, on the
birth of their son, Kaden Allen
Thomas on June 23, 2009.

Josh David writes, “After ten years of
work, I opened the High Line, a great
new park on top of an elevated rail
viaduct in Manhattan, in June.” He
started the High Line project with a
neighbor, Robert Hammond, back in
1999, when the historic structure
was going to be torn down. Since
June, half a million people have
already been up to visit. “The critical
