And When She Shines, She Really Shows You All She Can

Will you look at that prize-winning smile? That’s like a magazine-advertisement smile. I hope Georgina Rennie Ledet doesn’t expect royalties from me for using this photograph.

I can’t remember whether I met Georgina first through friends in the courtyard at lunch or through the drama club in our sophomore year. This party was at Mr. Gatti’s after a performance of Cheaper by the Dozen. The guy with the fake mustache is Keith Long from the class of 85. The guy in between was from the class of 87 or 88: it kills me that I’m forgetting his name, but it might be Brandon? I ran out of the house this morning before consulting the ole yearbook, but when I remember to do so, I’ll make an addition to this post.

I have no memory of whose hand is holding the dangling pizza cheese in front of the camera. I bet real photojournalists don’t have this kind of challenge with actors.
