Commemorated on a new mural in Sarasota’s Rosemary District, Emma E. Booker began teaching at Sarasota County’s first black school in 1918. At a time of racial segregation, the school was starved of resources, with old orange crates being used as desks and relying on hand-me-down books discarded from white schools. Eventually achieving recognition for her pioneering efforts, Emma E. Booker gave her name to a local elementary school - which President George W. Bush was visiting when he was informed of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

This booklet was property of Mrs. Irene Schultz (deceased) in honor of 25 years of service to this organization. It is approximately 1/2" thick. She began her career at Educational Testing Service in 1965. She worked for Jack Hollister (Henry Chauncey's executive associate) in Conant Hall until he retired. She then branched out to other locations throughout this sprawling campus of educators, sports fans, foodies and maniacs. She brought me in as a young teen to learn about working in the office environment, hierarchy and social climbing which I wanted no part of. I did learn something about research, computers, word processing, cars and fishing as they had some beautiful ponds as well as a fabulous cafeteria and got some great exercise. They did not have childcare facilities.
I also learned about office socialization which consisted of frequent wine & cheese parties, smoking, bullying, preying on the less fortunate, weight shaming, drinking, lunch dates, and golfing to name a few. There were some good people there, some younger and much older than my Mother, some insanely gifted people and some who actually did their jobs - that was refreshing - I can name three (Ms. Marge Ragosta, Mr. Richard Murphy and Mr. Harold Crane). I left ETS to begin work at Princeton University in the comptroller's office then later to the graphic arts department. Transportation to and from home was a challenge and at times I went with Mom to Princeton where I either walked or took a taxi to where I worked. That in itself was a challenge as I had not yet learned to defend myself as well as I wish I had. Dad was either fishing, sleeping or working.
Some of the buildings on this campus were named for warlords and some of the buildings were named for peace-keepers, or some might consider them one in the same, depending on when you visit.
I'm yet uncertain as to the final disposition of this booklet.

Keio University is a private, comprehensive higher education institution located on six campuses spread across the Greater Tokyo area. It offers an environment of academic and research excellence in a wide range of fields, and includes a university hospital. Founded in 1858, it is Japan’s first modern institution of higher learning, and over the last century and a half it has established itself as a leader in Japan through its continued commitment to education, research and medicine.
Keio has its origins in the school of Western learning established by Yukichi Fukuzawa, a school which soon evolved into a major center of learning. As a highly respected educator and intellectual, Fukuzawa was one of the pioneers of modern Japan. He aspired for Keio to become a model and leader of society, stressing the importance of learning that is based on jitsugaku, or “science”. In today’s changing world, Keio upholds its founder’s spirit of science as it continues to fulfill his aspiration.

Here's the intern who told us about the penguins during my last zoo visit. As you can tell from her face, it was a warm day!

USAG Yongsan Public Affairs
YONGSAN GARRISON — “After parents, it’s the educators, teachers, administrators and staff who have the biggest influence on our children,” U.S. Forces Korea Commander, Gen. James D. Thurman said, at the sixth annual Department of Defense Dependent Schools awards and recognition ceremony, April 6.
Thurman recounted how the three most influential people in his life were his father, his scout master, and his high school football coach.According to Thurman, these people had the biggest impact in developing his values in serving the country and teaching him about becoming a good citizen. He thus emphasized the significance that each of the roles, filled by the 66 DoDDS Korea staff members being recognized that day, had.
“What you do every day is so important - it’s the most important thing we’ve got going on here on the peninsula, outside of defending this place,” Thurman said.
In the midst of an uncertain period, Thurman explained that it was especially important that the people who strongly influenced future generations were doing a good job in educating the younger members of the community. Thurman presented each of the 66 DoDDs Korea staff members with scrolls of appreciation, on behalf of USFK.
Staff members included teachers, counselors, secretaries, technicians, librarians and administrators.
Sixteen were recognized for serving DoDDs for over 20 years.
Some of the honorees had four decades of service.
Laurel Eisinger, principal of Daegu American School, who has served DoDDs for 30 years, said she had worked through multiple positions within DoDDs, including the district level, area level and administrative level.
Having invested a significant amount of time in the profession, Eisinger said, “I believe right from the bottom of my heart that effective educators help children to be the successful leaders of tomorrow.”
After being in the profession and meeting many other teachers, however, she said, “I don’t think there’s an educator that doesn’t take this job whose goal isn’t to make a difference.”
While Eisinger is convinced that effective educators are crucial for impacting future generations, she also stated that it’s not just the doing of educators.
Rather, she added, it is a task that is performed by the whole community.

Pearl C. Hsiung : born in 1973 in Taiwan, explores the space that lies between representation and abstraction. Hsiung creates a surreal realm of absurd anthropomorphism and metaphor--where humanity may be absent, yet symbolic traces still linger. Her intensely colorful large-scale canvases, small studies, and performance videos challenge the banality of the pristine images that dominate post-minimalist contemporary art. Even so, her compositions draw on the histories of painting, alluding to European fauvism and surrealism, Chinese landscape painting, American abstraction, and pop aesthetics. Pearl C. Hsiung received her BA at the University of California, Los Angeles (1997) and her MFA at Goldsmiths College, London (2004). Hsiung's work has been featured in the 2006 California Biennial and Disorderly Conduct: Art in Tumultuous Times (2008), both at the Orange County Museum of Art; and the 2006 Busan Biennale in South Korea. Hsiung lives and works in Los Angeles.

The Bowtie Project is a partnership between Clockshop and California State Parks to activate an 18-acre post-industrial lot along the LA River. Since 2014, Clockshop has executed over 35 artist projects, performances, and events at the Bowtie.

Formerly a massive rail yard and switching station, the Bowtie was purchased by CA State Parks in 2003 to be developed as a public park and greenway. The Bowtie Project is curated by Clockshop, in close collaboration with CA State Parks. Invited artists are commissioned to create temporary artworks or performances that consider the unique physical properties of the site and engage in timely conversations about the future of the LA River.
Public Programs including the LA River Campouts and Reading By Moonrise provide opportunities for Angelenos of all ages to gather under the stars for traditional campfire programs and readings of new work from contemporary writers.
The Bowtie was formerly the site of a Southern Pacific Railroad train yard and maintenance facility. The railroad closed the facility in 1985, and the structures were razed shortly after, although some concrete foundational relics remain on site. The Bowtie is located along the 7.5-mile Glendale Narrows stretch of the LA River, which connects Los Feliz Boulevard with Figueroa Street. The Glendale Narrows portion of the river is âsoft-bottom,â meaning that it features a naturalized rather than a concrete bed. The site has been identified as a key location for river revitalization.
Through an exclusive partnership formalized in 2015, Clockshop and CA State Parks will continue producing cultural programs at the Bowtie Project for the next several years.
The CCF Fellowship for Visual Artists is celebrating 28 years of playing an active role in supporting local visual artists in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles County is rich with creativity. We are a community where cultures converge to create a beautiful mélange of originality, diversity, synchronicity and dissonance. This energy has helped establish L.A. as a world-class art capital and a place where we proudly practice, support and value a wide array of artistic endeavors.
The CCF Fellowship for Visual Artists is just one of many ways that the California Community Foundation supports the arts by supporting those responsible for its very creation â artists.
The Fellowship brings together artists, arts patrons, and the community, creating a mutually beneficial program that has supported 274 artists over the last 28 years. We invite you to get involved and celebrate an artist today.
Together, we help L.A. artists thrive.
