A short but very sweet column this time around. Adam Salem wrote, “I wanted to drop you a note with some news to put in the Alumni Magazine. My wife, Kimberly (Siciliano) Salem, and I welcomed our son Benjamin Samuel Salem on December 12. All three of us are doing great! Kim and I moved to Long Island a few months ago after living in Manhattan since graduation. I’ve been working for a financial company in New York City and Kim runs her own photography business. If any alums are looking for a good photographer, look her up at kimberlysalem.com.”


I also heard from Jennifer Albee (Hampshire College ’04), writing for husband Hans Albee, whom she reports was busy being an awesome dad. “Hans and I welcomed a son, Turner Winters Albee, bright and early on the morning of February 1. Turner was born at our home in Brooks, Maine, with two wonderful local midwives attending. We look forward to visiting the Hanover Plain this summer.”


Congratulations all around! I’ll be looking forward to meeting Benjamin and Turner at our next reunion! Lest you think 2014 is so far away, let it be known that preparations have already begun. If you are interested in helping with the plans, please let us know by e-mailing dartmouth03@gmail.com.
