Bob Norton continues as an adjunct professor of emergency medicine at Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland; he also serves as an emergency medical physician there. Ginger recounts fascinating stories about working in the admissions office during the early years of coeducation.
Staff physician-radiologist at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in lower Manhattan, Harley Kaufman also is an alumnus of Brooklyn Law School and licensed to practice law in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. He stays fit by swimming a half hour each day. In addition, Harley is a classically trained pianist.
Gary Johnson is a pediatric medicine specialist in Flint, Michigan, with more than 40 years of diverse experience and works in cooperation with other doctors and physicians in medical groups. Gary spoke fondly of Jerome Wade and Siddha Webber at our reunion memorial service.
In June 2018 Tom Helfrich retired from 34 years of civilian federal overseas service as a clinical child and school psychologist with the U.S. Department of Defense. Since then, he has divided time between his 1859 Plymouth, New Hampshire, home (“ho-vel”) and what he claims is a modest abode in Introdacqua, a medieval village near Sulmona, in the Abruzzo region of Italy.
Europe’s first craft spirits tasting bar, Beavis Bar, in Berlin, Germany, is owned by Jon Cooper. The bar has a collection of more than 850 spirits, from small distillers around the world, all craft, no industrial or mass-market products. In 2019 it won best craft spirits bar in the world at Destille Berlin, Europe’s premier craft spirits event. Jon is hoping to assemble a section of Dartmouth-related spirits at the bar, so is interested in connecting with other alum distillers. He has permission from the German authorities to import directly and likes items of high quality that are under the radar of the big distribution networks. Of course, if anyone visits Berlin, he would like you to stop by.
Jack Gault worked in New York City for a number of years while associated with leading financial service firms in various roles. In 1995 he founded Hanover Associates, LLC, in Darien, Connecticut. Jack has long been interested in historic preservation and served as a presiding representative for the Talmadge Hill Historic Preservation Society in Darien and wrote a well-documented book, Historic Talmadge Hill, about the history of the Talmadge Hill area and its surrounding towns. Jack served as executive director of the Darien Historical Society from September 2010 to September 2017.
