Guestbook Entries
Peter Sullivan and I joined the New England Opera Club soon after it was founded, and served the organization under many different titles. Peter was treasurer during the years of my NEOC presidency, and he presented many interesting program for the organization. I was employed at Putnam Mutual Funds when Black Monday necessitated down-sizing. Peter arranged several high level interviews for me. I shall miss listening to selections from his outstanding collection of opera recordings.
