Richard Pinkham spent his November birthday skiing in Loveland Basin, Colorado, with Pete Cogan. Richard writes, “Always good to get on snow on the birthday. Especially with old Dartmouth friends! Pete Moran was there in spirit. We called him from the lift.” Congratulations to Bill Cole on his election as mayor of Billings, Montana. Bill is an attorney and one of his campaign themes was “building a Billings that will retain and attract young people.” His election makes wife Anne Remmer Cole first lady of Billings. A shout-out also to Al Dotson, who was named managing partner of his Miami law firm, Bilzin Sumberg. Al is a government relations attorney and serves as chair of the firm’s land use and government relations practice group. Al is also chairman emeritus of 100 Black Men of America. Jack Zaremski went to Harvard Law School and clerked on the supreme court of Israel before founding Hanover Legal Personnel Services, a legal staffing and attorney recruitment company based in Manhattan—in the Empire State Building. Jack splits his time between New York and Israel, where he started a business brewing and distributing a line of craft beer using freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. Hilda Wang lives in Hong Kong, where she writes for a variety of newspapers. Hilda is looking forward to the reunion and promises to tell me all about eating snake soup.
