Just a small sample: Mayim Bialik, Adam Corolla, Nick Cassavetes, Bert Convy, Teri Garr, Cuba Gooding, Alan Ladd, Susan Sontag, Michael Tilson Thomas, John Williams
My memorable NoHoHS teachers from the late 1960s:
Lyle Wolfe, history. Very funny but a very good teacher. Retired a few years later and opened a bed & breakfast in Vermont with his wife, just like that Newhart show! Looked like Jonathan Winters and did a pretty good imitation of him.
Mr. Corbin, physics. His experiments were always fun.
Mr. Kazanznak & Mr. Lerner, math (Lerner was a part timer who taught calculus and made it easy).
Mr. Kennedy, biology
Mr. Doucette, English. When you gave the right answer or said something clever he would shout "Good man!". As funny as Mr. Wolfe, made literature fun. Like Robin Williams' Mr. Keating in "Dead Poet's Society". He actually said "Carpe diem!" often, 20 years before DPS was released in 1989. Maybe he was the model for Mr. Keating, although the film was set in a northeastern prep school.
Did you also go to Walter Reed Jr. HS? Lots of famous alum there. Great Middle School.
