Chauffeur to short divas. Still crazy about The Magnetic Fields.
Feb 1, 2010: Elizabeth (with the SF Girls Chorus, SF Symphony & Pacific Boychoir) won 3 Grammy Awards last night for Mahler's 8th: Best Classical, Best Choral Performance, Best Engineered record of 2009. Woo-hoo! (singers don't count #3, though)
April 2009: That's my 12 year-old, Elizabeth (bottom right), singing at the swearing-in of Barack Obama on January 20th. She's a soprano in the SF Girls Chorus ~ then they made their NYC debut April 13th at Lincoln Center.
Bookish? Two fun if habit-forming websites: LibraryThing.com for cataloging your books, and BookMooch.com for swapping 'em, internationally or locally.
July 2007: Stood atop Seorak-san, 2nd highest mountain in South Korea. Even more fun was meeting longtime flork friend, duck. Among our adventures: A wild ride on winding backroads in a crazy artist's old pick-up with twelve 11 year-olds shrieking gleefully the entire way up to our pottery class at a remote mountaintop celadon studio. Later, back down again ~ to a sandy beach bordered by skyscrapers and an impromptu plunge, fully dressed, into the East Sea. More gleeful shrieking... |
