Sure, you all know Paul Giamatti and Anderson Cooper and Nerissa Nields and Ron Livingston. Find out more about other classmates by coming to the reunion. We are doctors, mothers, actors, chemists, bankers, lawyers, cyclists, teachers, students, economists, singers, writers, painters, architects, athletes, and more. Look who we’ve Googled! As the reunion gets closer, we thought we’d give you a head start on getting reacquainted with each other. Although not everyone is good about keeping the class notes updated, we’ve been able to find out a lot just out there on the net. Weekly (ish) we’ll feature a new classmate (feel free to nominate candidates). TD’er Greg Spotts is a producer with his fingers in a whole lot of pies. A year after graduation (he had been interning and working in music management), he borrowed $1,000 from his grandparents and founded his own outfit in New York. Greg originally managed and marketed music engineers and producers, working with artists including Seal, REM and Sonic Youth. After relocating to Los Angeles in 1998, he expanded into web design and Internet marketing for rock bands and feature films including the racing-themed Driven, starring Yale ‘98 cutie Kip Pardue along with some Italian guy). In 2001 Greg hooked up with Yale '89 Whit Haskel [scroll way down] and became a marketing consultant for the Los Angeles Galaxy Major League Soccer team (among other things, he produced a commemorative Championship DVD for Fall ‘02 and redesigned the in-stadium entertainment (someone has to think about what goes on the jumbotron) for the launch of the team’s new stadium, the Home Depot Center). A couple of years ago, Greg co-founded the Shortlist Music Prize, to annually award music that is creative and adventurous, and in 2003 he Executive Produced the first televised Shortlist Concert Special for MTV2. Most recently, we’ve caught him making his directorial debut, filming a documentary about American job losses to overseas competition it will be released on DVD around Labor Day of 2004. Bonus biographical tidbit: Greg’s childhood house in New Caanan was featured in the Ang Lee movie The Ice Storm. View our recent Look who we’ve Googled victims... |
