Squeezing in some traveling with my wife whenever we can. And so proud of my wonderful daughters. e oldest, Mariah, attended the graduate school of social work at the U of C and liked Chicago so much she decided to stay. She works for the Division of Substance Abuse Prevention and Recovery for Illinois Opioid Response Programs. My younger daughter, Hazel, is a city planner, currently working on a large restoration project in Detroit. She loves being a part of the exciting change that's going on there. I still manage to enjoy see-sawing between acting and directing and occasionally producing. In Toronto at the moment, acting in a series and discovering some great little restaurants along the way and looking forward to whatever happens next."

Chuck Drueck writes: "Since I graduated from Latin, I got my medical degree from Northwestern and trained in surgery there. I then did a year's fellowship at the Brook Army Burn Unit in San Antonio. I came back to Evanston Hospital and directed the Evanston Hospital Burn Center for eight years. I then directed the Level 1 trauma program for 17 years at Evanston and Glenbrook hospitals. I then moved to Swedish Covenant Hospital to direct the Wound Center for 15 years. Now I am a hospice physician for Unity Hospice of Chicagoland, taking care of individuals at the end of their life by providing comfort and care." A note from Nancy Atwater Janus: "Brian and I are grandparents now to a perfect baby boy named Luca. He and our oldest daughter, Elena, are living at home with us, which is wonderful fun. I am still teaching at Eckerd College, although only part-time since my bicycle accident in 2012. e accident took away my ability to walk or use my hands very effectively, but it didn't take away my spirit or desire to travel. In the fall of 2017, I taught on Semester at Sea, a floating campus that took us nearly around the world. We stopped in nine countries in Europe, Africa and Asia, and I grew confident that with Brian's help I could still lead international courses abroad. So, last January we took 16 Eckerd students to Cambodia for a field study on human trafficking. I teach one course at Eckerd entitled Human Trafficking and another called Global Children's Issues. us, going to Cambodia was right up my alley, and we and the students all had a wonderful and educational time. I continue to be happy living in Florida, where shorts and tee shirts are almost daily wear. I don't much care for the politics down here, but they don't affect our daily life much … unless we read the news! Brian and I are Florida agents for a New Zealand company that makes a two-wheeled mobility device called the Omeo. It is a sort of seated Segway that allows me to go all over the beach and to other off-road trails. I hadn't gone to the beach since before the accident, so it's been great going back there. I never imagined that we'd all get this old, so I try to stay young at heart and to value all the things I can do instead of focusing on those I can't. It seems to be working. So come down and visit us. We have space, and we love having friends around. Just check first to be sure we're not away in some developing country!" 33 LATIN MAGAZINE » WINTER 2020
