Nancy Upper lands Jay Gitlin gig in Boston in November 2020

Note from Tony Lavely, ’64 Class Secretary:

Nancy Upper (the surviving partner of Dennis Upper) attended our 55th Class Reunion.  She was impressed, like many of us, with Jay Gitlin’s lecture/performance and the music of his band at the Class Dinner.

So, Nancy has booked Jay Gitlin ’71 into a Boston event in November 2020. She emailed Jan Truebner (1964 honorary classmate and surviving partner of Pete Truebner):
