Occupation: Professor of Medicine
Comment: Sylvania Highschool is the closest thing I have to a highschool experience and the 2 years I had there were formative. I had arrived from Dayton at the start of ninth grade and basically remade myself - and fell in with great friends and endless adventures. I moved with my family to Shaker Heights for 11th grade and then dropped out of highschool and went to Israel for a year (and later for 15 years). Made up for my lack of formal education by pursuing an MD-PhD and have been an educator, clinician, researcher and advocate for 40 years and am currently a Professor/Assistant Dean at Brown in RI. Married for 40 years with 3 children and 3 grandchildren. I came across the Year Book (Wyandotte) recently and memories flooded in.
Share a favorite memory -- something that made you laugh or cry or feel pride in your school...share: Somehow I was chosen to be Hugo Peabody in Bye, Bye Birdie as a freshman and also became a winning wrestler -- with no background in either -- both influenced me then and later
Who was your favorite teacher?: whoever taught world history -- changed my view of the world
Share an embarrassing moment or a prank that was played on someone else or on you...: In tenth grade, a few of us (Dick Arnos, Mike Bernstein, and Nelson Friemer, were so disruptive and dismissive to our classmates in social studies that the teacher sent us out of the room for the year and put us together in a study area and said, "teach yourselves" . We ended up reading important books of the time (e.g., Silent Spring) and arguing endlessly. Greatest thing that ever happened to me in education.

Another: wrestlers used to wear rubber clothing and go into gym's hot rooms/steam saunas and work out to lose weight -- some added drinking vodka to help (a diuretic) -- the things we did to our bodies!

Comment:
After graduating from U of Toledo, I worked at ODOT for 6 years on various road and bridge projects throughout Northwest Ohio. Love those orange barrels. Since then I have worked as a design engineer and land surveyor and currently work at a small civil engineering and surveying company in Toledo. I stayed in the Toledo area, got married in 1984 (see Kitty Gstalder’s profile) and raised our 2 sons and 2 daughters here in Sylvania, all are presently in college.
