[Oe List ...] Gratitude

[Elisabeth Banks]

Hello Jack and Louise, I missed the emails about Larry and Gene. I had the
pleasure and honour of working with them both for sometime in the Academy.
I learned a lot. Larry was head of the Black Academy and Gene The
Academy.Both With great teachers. I remember Gene Could explain. 3=mc
Squared better than old videos of Einstein. Larry taught me how to run a
seminar and bring the Music of the walls. He also taught me how to pull
lecture out of my back pocket whenever necessary.
I am saddened by their passing but grateful andrenewed by just thinking
about them.
Best wishes Lis Banks
