Madeleine,

Big congratulations on the new gig!

I'm sure it is just one of, and will lead to many more, way cool circumstances for you.

Best swank greetings to YOU,

Geoffrey Tozer

When I heard you the other night as I was cooking dinner, I screamed to my daughter, "I used to play Barbies with Madeleine! She had the best Barbies!" My daughter said,"mom, that's not why you should be friends with someone"-too wise for an 11 year old. Well, it is such a thrill to hear you, so- Congratulations! I will let my mom know when you are on, although I risk nagging sessions about my nonexistent career life!
If you ever find yourself in the St. Louis area let me know.

regards,

Laura Greer Argyres
