Dear Friends and Alumni,
Mission statements from organizations
have good and bad aspects. The positive
is that it identies your primary goal and
coalesces support from those who share
it.But it can also cause inexibility under
changed circumstances. Welcome to
the dilemma of the Alumni & Friends
of LaGuardia.
The primary mission of the A&F since
its founding in 1984 has been to raise
endowment funds to enhance the arts
education at the school. The creation of the
endowment was to ensure that support for
the arts continues in perpetuity so that the
school’s excellence is maintained through
good times and bad. So far so good. This
past year A&F awarded over $300,000 in
grants to studio departments and awards or
scholarships to students. But the current scal
environment seriously aects LaGuardia
High School, as it does all educational
institutions. These dicult times presents
us with extra challenges and many of you
have asked whether the A&F can do more to
help current students or how we can increase
our funding assistance to the school.
These are issues to which our board of
directors has given considerable thought and
we have made some changes in our policies
and procedures as a result. For example, we
are working with our donors to modify the
criteria for awards from their named funds so
that they are more closely aligned with the
current needs of the school and its students.
We are also working closely with the
Parents Association, which largely
focuses on supporting academic studies,
to coordinate our funding eorts so
that together we can ensure a broader
range of the school’s needs are met.
A&F remains committed to growing the
endowment and its long-term giving
program. Meanwhile, our board is considering
initiatives which respond to the school’s
current needs, while not foregoing
our longer term approach.
We intend to communicate better to our
supporters about the needs of the school
and our refurbishment of the A&F website,
starting early next year, should help
potential donors identify school needs. But
everyone can play a positive role by keeping
informed about developments aecting the
school as they unfold, supporting public
ocials who support the school, lending your
voice and volunteering when it will help,
attending school and A&F events and,
of course, contributing when you can.
It’s a dicult time and not just for the
school, of course. But we need to make
sure that LaGuardia comes through
this crisis intact and fullling the legacy
from which all of us beneted.

Dear Friends and Alumni,
I joined Alumni and Friends as its Executive
Director three months ago after Steve Asher
resigned. Since then I have realized what a
natural move it was for me as a graduate of
Music & Art and a member of A&F’s board
at its inception. I am thrilled to be back at
the school; walking the halls and hearing
and seeing what our talented young artists
are up to makes me smile every day!
By way of background, I spent most of my
career in management, organizational
development and strategic planning for
Fortune 100 nancial services companies.
I then moved into the not-for-prot sector,
consulting for and working with foundations.
I love the arts, which have always taken
a prominent place in my life, both as an
observer and underwater photographer,
and I’m excited by the opportunity to
combine my business skills and love of the
arts to support the school that was a vital
part of my education and development.
I arrived at A&F at a time of nancial stress
for the school. In spite of budget cuts, I am
delighted to see that, with support from
A&F and the Parents Association, LaGuardia
continues its legacy of excellence. In fact,
this year, it won the prestigious “Blackboard
Award” (see story below). The budget issues
will continue for the foreseeable future but
we who benetted in the past from the M&A,
PA and LaGuardia must continue to work
together to ensure that our successors receive
the same outstanding education that we did.
Accordingly, my primary goals will include:
increasing the endowment and A&F’s
capacity to help the school, collaborating
with the Principal and Parents Association
to fund projects that need special help and
engaging alumni and friends with their peers,
the school and its wonderful students.
I look forward to meeting and working
with you and wish you and your family a
happy holiday season and New Year.
From the
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

speech after speech, colleagues lauded her
dedication to LaGuardia and her commitment
to the students - one guest thought she
should change her name to “ She-La!”
Colleagues and friends contributed letters,
anecdotes, and photos that were compiled
in a three ring binder and given to her along
with an Egyptian style brooch in recognition
of teaching Advanced Placement Art History
for the past decade. But the gift closest to Ms.
Stember’s heart was the contributions from

retirement. The fund was originally created
in appreciation of Ms. Stember’s 25th year

The Business of The Music Business
...was a resounding success!
A&F has launched a new professional development series for alumni,
students and friends.This series will help inform aspiring artists on how
to become working professionals and ways to use their arts training to
enter meaningful careers.
On October 26, 2010 Mark Pitts (LAG ’88),
President of Urban Music at Jive Records and
Barry Weiss chairman and CEO for the RCA/
JIVE Label Group (formerly the BMG Label
Group) participated in a panel discussion
moderated by Andrew Edgeclie-Johnson,
media editor for the Financial Times to
discuss the business of the music business
and what emerging artists need to know.
Mr. Pitts’ enthusiasm for the school and
his experience as a student were both
apparent and contagious and set the tone
for the evening. He and Mr. Weiss talked
about the job of an A&R executive and CEO,
the biggest challenges, how the industry
has changed and gave advice to those
interested in pursuing music as a career.
There were many questions from the
audience and Mr. Pitts oered guidance
and advice to students interested in
pursing a career in music. You can read
the full article about this event on our
website at www.alumniandfriends.org.
We’d like to express our thanks to Abigail
Edgeclie-Johnson, LG ’94 who is a member
of the A&F Board for developing this series.
Coming Soon – The New A&F Website
The rst phase of the new A&F website will be introduced in January. It will enable you to
connect with your classmates, manage your prole, keep current about events at the school
and with the activities of fellow alumni, share pictures and donate and buy tickets and other
items online. The second phase will include the scanning and posting of all yearbooks to enable
members to access them online.
Speaking of websites, it has come to our attention that several people have signed up for a
social networking site that charges to connect alumni. The site is: http://www.alumniclass.com/
orellohlaguardia/login . This is NOT the website of Alumni and Friends of LaGuardia – we do
not support or sponsor it in any way. Nor do your contributions benet the school. Our ocial

M&A ‘60
The class of M&A ‘60 celebrated its 50th
reunion with three days of entertainment,
ne food and countless reminiscences. The
highlight of the weekend was a Friday night
performance in the auditorium at the “Castle”,
the school’s original building on 135th street,
followed by a dinner downstairs in the
old cafeteria. The evening featured world
renowned jazz musicians, veterans of the
New York Philharmonic and New York City
Ballet Orchestras and readings by well known
authors and poets, all of whom were members
of the class of ‘60. A slide show, presenting
artwork created over the years by many of
the class’s professional artists, completed the
event. The class gathered again on Saturday
night for dinner at a midtown restaurant
and on Sunday for an outdoor brunch and
spontaneous singing. As part of the reunion,
the Class of ‘60 raised an endowed fund
that will be dispersed to needy students or
to the school annually.
M&A ’70
Organized by class leaders and volunteers,
including Richard Roberts and Anthony
Delgado the group reminisced about the
“good old days” while looking forward to their
upcoming 50th reunion. Class attendance
was the highest ever at a reunion- some
alumni attributed this to social networking,
others attributed it to the buzz that was
generated at the 35th reunion. Moved by the
opportunity to reconnect, one classmate gave
a challenge donation to the 1970 Class Fund,
to be matched over the course of the next 12
months. This Fund is now in formation and will
hopefully turn into an endowed scholarship to
be awarded annually to a deserving student.
If you would like to contribute to the fund,
please contact the A&F oce at 212-595-1301
or via the web at info@alumniandfriends.org.
LG ’90
The only thing that exceeded this class’s
attendance was their spirits. Mobilized by
class leader Norman L. Durkins, the class is
a model of how to utilize social networking
in tandem with A&F to maintain ongoing
contact with each other. Fellow class leader
Natasha Johnson spoke about Norman’s
eorts, which began in earnest a full two
years before the actual event. “Facebook has
been a wonderful tool and we have to give
thanks to Norman Durkins for creating not
one but three Facebook pages. He created
and maintained these pages so that we could
all connect to one another. He posted the
information we received from A&F on the
pages and kept everyone in the loop. He
also created a memorial page for classmates
we have lost throughout the years. Class
of ‘90, to me, is the best non-biological
family a person can have….we all share a
very special bond”
Reunion 2010
We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the class leaders
and volunteers who worked on the reunion. We are most grateful for
your tireless eorts and commitment.
Here are some of the highlights from the weekend:
