Down and back in a day, she toured the White House and delivered not only comments and congratulations &#8212; from Wayne citizens, notes from son Will&#8217;s fifth-grade class at Wayne Elementary School, and wishes from daughter Christine (14) &#8212; but also took maple syrup from the Stevenson farm and four Maine T-shirts for the First Family. Wendy, director of the MEL-MAC Education Foundation in Portland, worked &#8220;tirelessly&#8221; for the Bush campaign as Kennebec County co-chair. During her eight years in the Maine Legislature, she was a member of the education committee. &#8220;I&#8217;m so thrilled to have a person in the White House who has made education a priority,&#8221; she said&#8230;. John Carrafa won an Obie for Outstanding Achievement in Choreography for his work on Urinetown, which moves to Broadway in August. &#8220;Leonard and I saw it with Geri FitzGerald &#8217;75,&#8221; reports Marcy Plavin, Bates modern dance director. &#8220;It&#8217;s a riot! And his choreography is amazing!&#8221; Obie awards celebrate outstanding achievements in off- and off-off-Broadway productions&#8230;. Tom Hendershott is a senior consultant for CHS Inc. working in Healthcare Information Systems project management&#8230;. Karen Stathoplos is in her 11th year working for Laudholm Trust, the &#8220;wonderful&#8221; environmental organization that raises funds for the Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve. &#8220;Perfect still because it was my mathematical, problem-solving skills and the flexible hours that still allow me to do theater.&#8221; Karen has performed in Out of Cakes, an adaptation for the stage of Ingmar Bergman&#8217;s The Passion of Anna; she&#8217;s played Anna in The King and I in Kennebunk; and she and husband Kim Krauss spent 10 rewarding days in Paris last November&#8230;.
