3I
surprised myself (though not some of my high school teachers) and
became a teacher. Here, in 1972, I was a second year high school
teacher teaching classes of English and French to juniors and
seniors. My students easily noted that I had a "metal
mouth" at the time to correct an overbite. They enjoyed ribbing
me.
4Part
of my duties as a high school teacher was to direct the school
play. Here I am in a very wide tie (and the next best thing to
a leisure suit) directing students for a production of Cheaper by the
Dozen.

After three years of teaching high school, I began work on my
master's degree and started teaching reading and study skills to
college students. Here I am at my first job at the now-defunct
Detroit Institute of Technology.
