Good luck with the classes. You are braver than I. But I wonder if you know where Sallie Whalen is now? I think she is still in this world and I would like to write to her. My son was a student in her studios for a number of years. If you know how to reach her, I'd be grateful to know--though I don't quite know whether that info can be conveyed in this venue. I so well remember some of Sallie's staff--Sandra Behm (whom I'd also like to reach) and the wonderful late Carol Megeghan (sp?). If you can't tell me here, I'm in the Santa Monica phone book.
