Jan - Feb 2013

At this stage of the game you might think all of our accomplishments are in the book and the book is closed. Not so fast. Bill Randall, retired banker from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this year received the Maestro Award from the United Performing Arts Fund (UPAF) of Milwaukee for his accomplishments as a community leader and co-founder of UPAF 45 years ago. UPAF is now the largest united arts fund in the country. John Rosenwald, still active in financial services in New York as vice chairman at JPMorgan Chase, has received two public service recognitions this fall. In early September in New York he was honored before more than 1,000 people at the annual dinner of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum Foundation Inc. for his work on behalf of the foundation. It is the principal supporter of the memorial and museum commemorating the September 11 attacks of 2001. This was followed in November, again in New York, by the New York Landmarks Conservancy with an award to “Rosie” for his work on behalf of that organization. The mission of the conservancy is to preserve and protect the iconic buildings and unique neighborhoods of New York. Also honored at that dinner were Liza Minnelli, theater owners and producers the Nederlander brothers and real estate developer Peter Malkin, brother of our late classmate Roger Malkin. We have several classmates still competing in sports and one of the most active is Harry Goldsmith, M.D.,from Glenbrook, Nevada. Harry swims as a member of the Alameda Aquatic Masters, and this year his team set a new world record in the 400-meter relay for 80 years and older. They also hold the world’s record for the 800-meter freestyle relay. Finally, in Hanover this fall the Hopkins Center and the Dartmouth Film Society honored Buck Henry for his distinguished career as a film actor, writer and director. The program, “Buck—Amok,” featured film clips of many of Buck’s works and was part of the 50th anniversary celebration for the Hopkins Center at Dartmouth. Many of our local ’52s were able to attend the event honoring our classmate.
