Hard to believe it’s been 50 years. The gray hair, trifocals, and increasingly creaky joints suggest the math unfortunately checks out. I didn’t make it for our senior year at TZ (did anyone even notice?). I left a year early to start college at SUNY Stony Brook, then headed to the Bronx for medical school […]

Diane (Blazquez) Maxwell

After graduating from TZ, I attended RCC and earned my associate’s degree. At the time, college wasn’t really my focus, so I explored a variety of jobs before eventually returning to school later in life to earn my bachelor’s degree from Dominican College.

I earned undergraduate and master’s degrees in Finance from the […]

Shari (Cohen) Chase

Prior to graduating I was on the United States track team at the Maccabiah Games and brought home 2 medals. I married at 21 and we were together for 35 […]

Carole (C.J.) Cona was an artsy eccentric pain in the ass in high school, she’s lived the life of an eccentric art teacher, gallery owner, collectibles dealer, and at present she’s still an artsy pain in the ass! P.S. And, she likes it that way!
