Class Note 2003
Much to write about this time around!
Heather (Hanson) Manning wrote, “I was married on July 9 to Ben Manning (Georgia Tech ’03, Duke ’06). The wedding took place in my hometown of Norwalk, Connecticut. Dartmouth people included bridesmaids Courtney (Anderson) DaCosta, Veronica Mears and Allison Sydlaske. Other Dartmouth guests were there too—Jason DaCosta, Dirk Blum, Ann Chang, LeVaur Livingstone ’02, Mike Rheaume ’02, Tai Antoine ’01 and Steve Griffith, Tu’74. Ben and I are living in Arlington, Virginia.”
Arielle Farber Poleg was married to Oren Poleg in Boston on July 3. Helping celebrate were Ana Bonnheim, Ethan Levine, Rebecca Kurzweil Levine and Alexa Schirtzinger. Arielle and Oren are living and working in Washington, D.C. Please say hello if you’re in the area!
Marianne Jones sent word that “Kate Szilagyi and Scott MacArthur ’02 were married on July 16 at the beautiful Stonepine Estate in Carmel, California.” In addition to Marianne, other Dartmouth alums in attendance were Mike Larocca, Matt Young, Scott Rutherford, Brent Jones, Betsy McKeen, Molly McIntosh, Laura Grip, Peter Szilagyi ’77, Rupa Magge ’01, Alex Berger ’02, Connor Price ’02, Mary Anne Mendenhall ’02, Michael Linchitz ’02, Spencer Edge ’02, Doug Heitner ’02, Kansas Henderson ’02, Mike Maturo ’02, Craig Lund ’02, Chris Taliercio ’02, Rob Delwo ’02, Frank Nardella ’02, Chris Lentz ’02, Damara Cockfield ’02, Judith Philips ’04, Emily Lange ’04, Susan Napier ’04 and Maria Perez ’05.” What a crew! Kate also recently started a new blog on healthy living called The Natural Life by Kate. I highly recommend you check it out—there are lots of yummy recipes!
On August 24 Taylor Spencer married Marie Lebro in Tully, New York. Marie was practically an honorary classmate during our time at Dartmouth and many of my favorite memories from Hanover include her. The happy couple was able to take some time off and go on a cruise before heading back to work in Albany, New York. Finally, by the time you read this Susan Roy will have married Ben Greenbowe (U Iowa ’02) in a beautiful ceremony overlooking Hingham Habor, just outside of Boston. I can predict this wedding will be absolutely perfect because the lovely bride is one of the most wonderful people I know. Kerry McGraw ’04 is planning on being there. Sue also got a new job recently working with AVEO Pharmaceuticals and just became a new aunt.
Last but certainly not least, Ashley Nowygrod sent the following update. “I finished up my M.B.A. at the University of Michigan this past spring. I spent part of the summer visiting Jen Sy ’04 and roadtripping through Australia (Jen’s in Sydney doing Ph.D. research). After three years away from the land of cubicles, I’ll be moving down to Dallas in August to start work for American Airlines. I’d love to hear from anyone in the Dallas area!” Given her recent globe trotting, Ashley also started a travel blog called The Flying Platypus. It’s a very fun read!
Congratulations to all!
