CLASS OF 1972
Brooklyn, NY

Irene's Story

I lived in Brooklyn until I was 37. My home now is in Morris County, New Jersey. I am married, with one daughter who is 19 . I am a home maker presently, but worked as an attorney and a law professor. My present roles include wife, mother, daughter and sister and friend. At the age of 55, I think I have experienced alot of things that I never could have foreseen as a high schooler. Some things were dreams come true like becoming a mother, marrying a wonderful man, graduating law school, having 90 plus year old parents and making dear friends. Challenges included iilness, loss, limitations and hard work. I believe that if you are not born lucky, then you must be very strong in this life. I remember my high school days, like most of school through high school as academically boring with a few exceptions. Socially, I met some of the most interesting people I would ever come to know and I regret not keeping in touch. Growing up in Brooklyn was such a rich and colorful experience.

me I have been living in a suburban wasteland for years now and there is nothing like NYC. II loved to laugh , dance, and had a wicked a sense of humor. Adolescence and being a teenager was great. I had confidence and a good self image.. It is middle age that is the most difficult so far- getting older,difficult children, aging sick parents and uncertainty about what to do next. There are still good things happening.I have several hobbies in addition to academics and reading like Sailing, Opera, Gardening,Cooking and recently I started to get involved with Show dogs- I am very busy showing my German shepherd for conformity and I am traveling , meeting new people and exploring a whole other world. I love to experience different cultures and I would like to travel world wide now that we are empty nesters. I would like to be able to recognize the people featured as people I graduated with. It seems any E mail Classmates announcement feature people that I do not know or remember. I guess I need to explore the site some more.
