Nicole Hemmett Griffiths gave birth to her third son, Matiss, in February 2007. He joins brothers Wesley and Evan. Says Nicole, “I continue to enjoy life at home with them and my part-time home-child-care business. I also teach stroller aerobics and Roc-n-Tots at our local YMCA.” Husband Erik is employed by KAPL as well as the Navy Reserve. They live in Greenfield Center, NY.

Allyson Salinger Ferrante is a PhD student in comparative literature at the University of Southern California. Her dissertation compares several texts of Caribbean literature with Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities and explores the individual’s imagination and cultural self-determination. She is married to film composer Joe Ferrante and loves the southern California lifestyle (despite fond memories of digging through snow to get to class at Skidmore).
