Photos of Friends
picture of Fluffy in San Francisco Fluffy, a/k/a Ginny Gilbertie Williams, has been my best friend since we were nine. We met riding our bikes in Westport, CT, where we both grew up and our parents still live. This is her with her daughter, Kate.
picture of Peter in Florida Peter Olszowka. He just completed an MBA at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth. This is a photo of him at the All Star Sports Resort in Orlando.
picture of Chris and Jeanne in Rockport Chris Felknor and Jeanne Wildman are buddies from the Folk Song Society. They're married and live in Arlington, Mass. We've been singing together as the Simones (named after my cat) with Kathryn Kaufman (see below). This picture was taken at a folk music weekend in Rockport, MA, in February 1996.
picture of Kathryn with harmonica Kathryn Kaufman, another friend from the Folk Song Society, and I worked together on the Folk Song Society newsletter for many years. I did the typing and layout, and then Kathryn looked everything over and did spot illustrations. We tried to make a point of putting a sketch of my cat, Simone, in every issue! Kathryn plays harmonica, autoharp, melodica, and other instruments with the Simones, along with Chris and Jeanne (above) and me. This picture was taken at a folk music weekend in Rockport, MA, in February 1996.
picture of Robert with guitar Robert Wilson , computer programmer and folk musician. Robert moved back to Manhattan, his native land, in August of 1995. We met through the Folk Song Society and drove people crazy with our faux-insulting banter. This picture was taken at a folk music weekend in Rockport, MA, in February 1996.
picture of Elsa at the Nameless Coffeehouse Elsa Elliott is a social researcher, currently working in the field of health and addictions research. We got to be pals through a monthly recreational singing group, and have since worked & played together through the Folk Song Society, the Nameless Coffeehouse (where she served on the board of directors for a year) and the New England Folk Festival Association. This photo was taken at the Nameless Coffeehouse in 1995. She's at the front desk trying to get audience members to give her money.
