Bill's Story
PHOTO- Wife Dolores and I on a rare vacation in South Beach/ Miami-Fort Lauderdale Areas.
Life
English and ESL teacher in Los Angeles adult schools and community colleges. Married, no kids; live in Santa Monica with wife, Dolores.
For creative, "heavy" stuff, find and read Conrad Aikin's fantastic poem, "Tetelestai." I identify with his character.
School
Coal cracker from Georgetown attends downtown St. Mary's High School. Basketball teams--the Gaels became the Marymen. Father McGowan replaced by Father Campbell. Sisters of Mercy saw that I set a record for detentions.(Love the photo of Sister Felician!)
Phil Walsh and his torrid, on-again, off-again love affair with the woman he eventually married. Wonderful memories of teen crushes, etc...Cathy O'Connor, Kathy Mulhern, Eugenia McGuire, Andrea Aceituno from Marymount, Ann Sharkey, Maureen Evers...
"Thank you all."
College

Workplace
Lost Soul cynic skips from "iceflow" to "iceflow" for 38 years. Journalism public relations, photography, advertising and marketing took up lots of years.
1985 was the nadir of my professional and personal life.
Slid into publications management with The California Bicyclist/ Yellow Jersey Enterprises saga in Los Angeles.
Stumbled into Adult Education in 1988, then Community College teaching. FANTASTIC !
That all, Folks.
