Our caring, dedicated staff introduces positive Christian values, giving your child a solid foundation to grow in love and commitment to God, family, community and individual excellence.

ecently our neighborhood hosted a couple of social events and it reminded of my neighborhood as a kid. During my middle school and high school years, I lived in the Gatewood historic neighborhood in Oklahoma City, where everyone knew each other and all the children played together. The neighborhood kids were mostly at our house because with all my siblings (well, eight of 13) still at home, there was always someone to play with. The neighborhood hosted block parties, and my younger siblings and their playmates would put on plays and musical performances for the parents. I babysat for several of the young families, and when I saw our neighbors outside, they talked to me, asked about school, my siblings and my parents. I’m sure my folks felt pretty safe and secure that there were others watching out for us. After my dad died when I was 13, it felt like the entire neighborhood rallied around my mom and adopted us — although as a teen, it was a bit of an annoyance when I was trying to get away with something, like sneaking out. Neighbors can turn out to be great friends; I’m still in touch with one of those neighbors. She became a mentor to me and I consider her and her family part of our own. The neighborhood where we live now and where we raised our kids is very similar in many ways — established, with older homes and beautiful, mature trees. Although there weren’t nearly as many neighbor kids for our children to play with, when they were old enough we felt safe to let them roam and explore on their own. We’ve got some great neighbors, and we look out for each other — pick up the paper when out of town, take

care of plants and animals and on occasion, have a meal together. We consider them good friends. Through my church, we do some outreach to the poor and I’ve been in a number of neighborhoods that don’t feel family-friendly. I wonder when I see the kids there, do they worry about their safety, and do they have people looking out for them? How fortunate we are that for the most part in our Preston Hollow or Park Cities neighborhoods, we can feel safe and secure. Pat Martin Publisher pat.martin@ peoplenewspapers.com

E D U C AT I O N Students Turn Trash to Artistic Treasure Detroit artist inspired ORLS sculptures By Paige Kerley

People Newspapers The students at Our Redeemer Lutheran School used their imagination to turn trash into treasure earlier this semester, and learned about art history and the power of creativity along the way. It started when Ema Johnson, the art teacher at ORLS, wanted to devote more time to learning about black artists during Black History Month. “I wanted to teach art history, but also the artistic experience and diversity,” she said. She focused on a few different artists, but was “fascinated” by Tyree Guyton and his Heidelberg Project, an artistic movement in Detroit that started almost 30 years ago. Guyton, a Detroit native, returned to his neighborhood on Heidelberg Street in 1986 to find it damaged by poverty and crime. His grandfather inspired him to make a difference in the neighborhood by picking up a paintbrush. Guyton used paint and items found along the street to rejuvenate houses, sidewalks, and vacant lots. “As an artist I believe that my job is to find solutions,” Guyton said in a letter to Johnson’s class. “When I returned to my childhood neighborhood and saw that things had changed, I saw it as an opportunity to use imagination as a tool to create something new and different.” Back in Johnson’s class, students in

kindergarten through sixth grade were given recyclable and trashed materials to create their own new and different items. “I asked them, ‘What would you do if you found your neighborhood like that?’ I really just left the creativity up to them,” Johnson said. The kids created miniature sculptures out of the available items. “The children loved it,” Johnson said. “Our message in class was how to use creativity to make your life better. It’s a message of kindness.” Jenenne Whitfield, Guyton’s wife and the executive director of the Heidelberg Project, said she is “ecstatic and floored” at the lengths the project’s inspiration

has traveled. “Our greatest accomplishment of the project is reaching kids all over the world,” she said. “It’s such an authentic project that I feel kids are drawn to it.” The Heidelberg Project’s vision extends past turning trash into treasure, but encompasses a feeling of hope and imagination that spans geographical boundaries. “Sometimes items, people and even neighborhoods can be discarded,” Guyton said. “If you can pick these things up, pick people up, brush them off and add color, it is possible to breathe new life into an area that would otherwise be forgotten.”

EDUCAT IO N

From Coast to Coast, Local 2011 Valedictorians Are Staying Busy

t’s been four years since the class of 2011 took that walk across the stage. We caught up with some valedictorians from local schools to see what they’ve been up to and what they've learned. Moez Aziz High School: St. Mark’s College: University of Pennsylvania Major: Biophysics and Bioengineering What have you been up to in college? I have enjoyed being a lab instructor for the physics department for the past 2.5 years. One aspect of on-campus involvement that has meant a lot to me is Access Engineering, an organization in which each Saturday, we teach engineering concepts and skills such as 3D printing and SolidWorks CAD modeling to local Philadelphia high school students. Leigh Bonner High School: Yavneh Academy College: Barnard College (N.Y.) Major: History What advice do you have for graduating high school seniors? Be more interested in what you’re learning instead of what grades you’re getting. Some people came in and getting A’s is their only prerogative. You learn so much more in college than you do in high school and just because you aren’t getting A+’s doesn’t mean you aren’t doing well. You’re just learning something on a different level. Grant Fitts High School: Episcopal School of Dallas College: Johns Hopkins University Major: Biomedical engineering What did you learn from high school that carried you through college? College is an evolution of the necessary time management skills I got in high school. Playing lacrosse cut into my time in high school, and college has been just a more time-consuming version of the same things. You find yourself at a loss for time more than you’d think.

Connor Healy High School: Parish Episcopal College: University of Texas Major: Black Studies, History and Plan II What have you been up to in college? Walking, learning, exploring, playing, discovering, studying, shifting, sharing, wondering. Two of my most meaningful experiences in university have been directing a production of “The Zoo Story” in my sophomore year and playing Caliban in “The Tempest” as part of the Shakespeare at Winedale program the summer after my sophomore year. Kevin Kolker High School: Jesuit College: Texas A&M University Major: Math and Philosophy What did you learn from high school that carried you through college? Jesuit really focused on forming us into being men for others and being kind to other people. That’s been key for my college career, especially with all the volunteering. Brett Merriam High School: Greenhill College: Vassar College Major: Urban Studies What advice do you have for graduating high school seniors? Your experience at college is never going to be how you expect, for better or for worse. You have to go into everything with an open mind, because nothing is going to match up exactly with your expectations. Stephen Paul High School: The Covenant School College: Texas Christian University Major: Economics What advice do you have for graduating high school seniors? Work hard but also try to have some fun along the way. Make a lot of friends and always go on road trips. — Meredith Carey

Lamplighter kindergarten students square-danced for parents, faculty, and staff at a "Hootenanny" assembly on May 8. Square dancing, the school's oldest tradition, dates back to 1953. "There is genuine school spirit at Lamplighter primarily because the school is steeped in such tradition," said Dr. Joan Hill, Lamplighter head of school. "Current high school alumni who gathered for a May 3 reunion affectionately recounted these memories of square dancing in kindergarten." E D WA R D R I T E N O U R

SPIETH SEEING PLENTY OF GREEN Golf phenom stays true to local roots

TEEING IT UP The Byron Nelson Championship is slated for May 28-31 at the Four Seasons Resort and Club in Irving. It will be the fifth appearance at the tournament for Jordan Spieth. Here is how he’s fared each year.

By Todd Jorgenson

People Newspapers Jordan Spieth doesn’t need to play the Byron Nelson Championship. The Masters champion could use the last week in May to rest up before more prestigious events. But the Preston Hollow native has always been loyal to the hometown tournament where he received his first PGA Tour exemption, making the cut while he was still a junior at Jesuit. Five years later, Spieth is certain to draw huge galleries each day at the Four Seasons Resort and Club in Irving after becoming one of the top golfers in the world at just 21 years old. He’s even taking time to conduct a free youth clinic with University Park’s Harrison Frazar prior to the tournament. Spieth bought a $2.3 million house in Preston Hollow this spring. So despite his celebrity, it appears that his commitment to his neighborhood roots is genuine. And that doesn’t surprise those who’ve known him growing up. During a post-Masters off week in April, Spieth surprised the current Jesuit golf team by stopping by a practice during his

Masters champion Jordan Spieth will attract large galleries again at the Byron Nelson Championship. week off before the Rangers competed at the UIL state tournament. “He hung out with us for over an hour and played a couple of holes. It was great for those guys to hear a talk from him,” said Jesuit head coach Cathy Marino. “It’s created a lot of excitement for golf here. It’s very inspiring to see someone who came through Jesuit and lives here have that kind of success.” Spieth won 22 tournaments

during his four years at Jesuit in addition to two U.S. Junior Amateur titles in 2009 and 2011. “You could just tell that Jordan had something about him,” said Rob Addington, president of the Texas Golf Association. “He’s an incredible competitor, but he’s very likeable and well-mannered.” Addington is a fellow Preston Hollow resident and a member at Brook Hollow Golf Club, where he introduced Spieth sev-

eral years ago to Australia native Cameron McCormick, the club’s director of instruction. The pair proved a good match, and McCormick has been Spieth’s swing coach ever since. “As he kept growing and playing better, he played on our junior tour, and that’s when I got a sense that he has another gear that not every junior golfer has,” Addington said. “I felt like he had a chance to really be something special.”

Addington recalls one year at the Byron Nelson Junior Championship, when Spieth was tired and shot a mediocre first round, placing him in the middle of the pack. The next day, he broke the course record and won going away. “He’s always been incredibly mature. He’s got a great perspective on things. He’s great for the game and a great role model,” Addington said. “His apparel has changed a little bit, but he still just wants to be Jordan and play golf with his buddies.” Addington said Spieth has remained humble and retained the work ethic that has fueled his rise to fame and fortune. “It’s a very quiet confidence that’s not arrogant or brash in any way,” Addington said. “I’d think a lot of him as a person, even if he was a terrible golfer.”

Former Ursuline Standout Transitions to College Coaching By Todd Jorgenson

People Newspapers Molly Marrin wasn’t supposed to be a basketball player. Then after she became a good basketball player, she wasn’t supposed to be a coach. But as she accepted her first head coaching job this spring at Regis University in Denver, the former Ursuline standout couldn’t be happier. “This is my dream job,” Marrin said. “It’s definitely something I was ready for. It’s been crazy and it’s been a blast. I’m super-excited about the future.” Marrin will begin her first

season at her alma mater in the fall when she takes over for the retiring Linda Raunig, who coached Marrin at Regis more than 10 years ago, when the pair was part of the school’s first conference championship team. It’s true that she didn’t originally plan to be a coach, but that changed after the journalism major spent a summer internship at a Denver television station. “I wasn’t sure if I wanted to work 2 to 11 in a basement,” she said. “That kind of hit me.” About the same time, she ran into a coach at the University of Northern Colorado who was

leaving the program and suggested she apply for the job because the head coach was familiar with her. “He said if you work half as hard as a coach as you did as a player, than you’ll be great,” Marrin said. “That was the start. I had a couple players younger than me.” The next decade took Marrin to assistant coaching jobs in Ohio and North Dakota before she spent six seasons at the University of San Francisco. From there, she was hired at the University of Denver for one season C O U R T E SY P H O T O

Hornets Play Doubles With SPC Spring Tennis Championships

C O U R T E SY P H O T O S

Greenhill won SPC titles this spring in girls track (top) and boys and girls tennis. Ruling the SPC tennis courts is nothing new for Greenhill, which has won several conference titles in recent years. However, the Hornets set a new standard by sweeping the boys and girls crowns for the first time in school history at the recent SPC spring meet in Fort Worth. The Greenhill boys claimed their third straight championship and fifth in the past six years. The girls reclaimed the top spot for the first time since 2009. On the boys side, Greenhill’s win over Houston Kinkaid in the title match was its 52nd victory in its last 55 match-

es, capping a 12-0 season. The girls edged ESD for the title and finished the year with a 14-3 mark. The Hornets also successfully defended their SPC title in girls track and field. Jernaya Sharp won the 100 meters, 100 hurdles, and long jump, while Amelia Jones took the pole vault crown. Sharp also teamed with Ellen Margaret Andrews, Emily Richmond, and Kelli Banks to win the 4x400 relay. In other action, ESD earned its second consecutive boys lacrosse title with a 10-4 win over Houston St. John’s, with St. Mark’s coming in third. — Todd Jorgenson

As a coach, she’s paid her dues and racked up plenty of travel miles as an assistant, but now hopes to settle down at the small Jesuit school where she got her start. “I know the craziness of the coaching world,” Marrin said. “The best part is the people I meet through coaching and the people I bond with through this sport. It’s what I’m made of. It’s definitely something I was called to do.”

before taking the Regis job. Growing up in Preston Hollow, basketball was low on the list of priorities for Marrin. She grew up as an athlete in an Irish Catholic family with four brothers, and gave almost every sport a try — soccer, tennis, swimming, volleyball, and even baseball. In fact, she gained some notoriety at age 11 when she signed up for a baseball league at YMCA, even after she was told that it was only for boys. Then she hit a double and a triple in her first game. “To me, it didn’t seem like a big deal. It didn’t seem like I was doing anything different until I got on the team and realized I was the only girl in the league,” Marrin said. “I was the shortstop with a ponytail. A couple of the boys quit, and that really didn’t faze me.” It wasn’t until Marrin grew five inches in middle school — bringing her to

BUSINESS House Calls Go High-Tech With Mend App By Paige Kerley

People Newspapers Dr. Jonathan Clarke is taking modern medicine old-school with his new app-based house-call service known as Mend. “Healthcare isn’t convenient,” Clarke said. “We aim to change that.” Mend is a way for people suffering from anything from the sniffles to minor injuries to receive medical care in the comfort of their home, office, or hotel room. Although Clarke doesn’t have a background in technology, he wanted to bring the same level of care he saw during his 15-year tenure as an emergency physician for the Navy. “It’s been a great learning process,” he said. “We found a good app developer to put together what I envisioned.” The process of using Mend — which serves a customer base primarily in the Park Cities and Preston Hollow — is simple: request an appointment through the free mobile app or call the appointment hotline. Then Clarke or one of Mend’s five physician assistants or nurse practitioners will arrive at your designated location. All of the company’s employees have experience in emergency medicine and can give prescriptions. Mend also partners with Dougherty’s Pharmacy for prescription delivery. Each appointment is slotted for an hour and a half, which is much longer than usual emergency rooms. “This lets me practice how I want to practice,” said Mark Elliott, one of Mend’s physician assistants. “I would usually see three, four, five patients in the same time frame while working in the ER.” Although Mend does not accept in-

Mend is designed to offer house calls that shorten wait times and offer a wider range of services than traditional appointments.

surance, Clarke feels the price menu is much better for the customer in the age of flexible spending accounts. “Copays and deductibles are getting higher and higher,” he said. “Our services are providing savings as opposed to any other venue.” Weekday appointments (8 a.m. to 8 p.m.) run customers $199 and weekend appointments (11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.) cost $249. If any other services are needed (medicines, labs, a more complex proce-

dure such as stitches, etc.), those prices are listed on the menu. “What you see is what you get,” Elliott said. “You don’t have to wait two months for a bill from insurance to see what they will or won’t cover.” Clarke said the response from the community has been positive. “Everyone is excited,” Clarke said. “This is an unprecedented convenience in medicine. We are giving people half their day back.”

Snider Plaza Original Not Exactly Closing Its Doors By Sarah Bennett

People Newspapers Pierce Hardware has been, shall we say, a fixture in Snider Plaza since 1939, making it one of the shopping center’s original tenants. But this month, that will all change. That’s because Pierce Hardware is moving to a new showroom on Mockingbird Lane. The new location, as it intersects with Denton Drive, is not far from Love Field. “We’re excited about the move, but we’re sorry to leave Snider Plaza, as you might imagine,” company president and

University Park resident Mike McKenzie said. “We don’t feel like we’re leaving the neighborhood. We’re going to be close enough for our main customer base. We feel like we’ll be able to better serve them in the new location.” Increased parking and neighborhood convenience are just a few added decorative features. But it’s the larger showroom space that’s the nuts and bolts of the move. “We need to be able to have working displays and we just weren’t going to be able to do it here very effectively,” McKenzie said.

To get down to technicalities, the Snider Plaza shop is 1,500 square feet; the new showroom is 5,000. That means much more space for floor models, including some that are equipped for actual demonstrations. The new location will display 10 bathtubs and 18-20 toilets, and 20 kitchen sinks, in addition to the company’s usual selection of luxury knobs, pulls, and locks. That comes in handy for both the company’s remodeling clients and new construction clients, many of whom need to inC H R I S M C G AT H E Y

LIVING WELL Entrepreneur Tries Healing Under the Skin By Sarah Bennett

People Newspapers Nathan Halsey never saw himself getting into the skin-care business. The Park Cities resident, originally from Corpus Christi, got his degree from Texas A&M and took a job in finance and investments. “Learning the biology and science behind it has been a learning curve, for sure,” he said. “That’s been a continuing education process.” A few things had to happen before he could become the CEO of Bellatorra Skin Care: the Ernst and Young alum first broke away from finance in 2008 with a “nutriceuticals” company that mainly focused on sleep aids and nutritional supplements. That gave him a first taste of the medicine. “I had this light-bulb moment when I said, ‘God, no one’s really doing that with skin care,’” he said. “That’s what kind of started it — bringing a different way to deliver the ingredients to skin care that no one had really done before.” Here’s the pitch: Bellatorra products release key ingredients deep into the skin over a 48-hour period. The time-release element is meant to achieve greater absorption, and therefore better results. Halsey believes it to be the differentiating factor for the products.

C H R I S M C G AT H E Y

Park Cities resident Nathan Halsey is the CEO of Bellatorra Skin Care. “We spent about two years on [research and design] perfecting this nanotechnology, which is like a microscopic, encapsulated method of getting the key ingredients seven to nine layers deep,” he said. Halsey brought in skin-care experts, had aestheticians test the products, and launched the products online in January. The company’s dream retailers are

Neiman Marcus, Barney’s New York, and Bergdorf Goodman. They’ve already secured a 12-month exclusive commitment with Barney’s, which will start in August, and the products will be featured in a similar store in Australia. Right now, the line includes four key products: a cleanser, an “uplifting mist,” a moisturizer, and an eye cream. Halsey plans to release a new prod-

uct each quarter once the company goes brick-and-mortar. “There are a lot of skincare brands out there,” he said. “It was a unique story that the retailers hadn’t heard before.” Even though the products are not yet in stores, Bellatorra already has some devotees. Kelly Sexton, a Houston resident who has a longstanding friendship with Halsey’s parents, began using the products when she was diagnosed with skin cancer in her lower eyelid in 2013. “I had to have surgery … and I was having these itching complications,” she said. “So I quit using what the doctor told me to use and started using Bellatorra. I went back for a checkup, and he said ‘What are you doing, because it’s healing so much faster?’” The flight attendant has since kept up her orders online and spread the word with friends. “You can’t even tell I had a scar on my eye,” she said. “I try to do the more natural products, whether in vitamins or skin care, and this fit right in with that.” And for Halsey, that’s the whole point. “I like being knowledgeable about what products we can take that help longevity and just feeling good,” he said. “Skin care is a rewarding space because if a you take something and you feel younger and look better, it transforms you on the inside, too.”

Mobility Issues Don't Need Complications By Paige Kerley

can ease the process of home modification. “We ask, ‘What is the challenge? What are the problems you’re facing? What are your goals? Where are you trying to be and what are you trying to do?’” Jennifer said. n Early discussions also keep the cost of equipment or potential home modifications as low as possible. Gordon often gets calls from realtors who have clients with current or potential mobility issues who have narrowed down a list of properties.

People N ewspapers When Gordon Raney’s father began using a wheelchair, he started a journey many people face when dealing with aging parents. “It became a situation of all of the bedrooms are upstairs, he has a large spiral staircase, and now he’s in a wheelchair,” Raney said. “Me and Jen and everyone out there asked, ‘What do we do now?’ I knew nothing about stair lifts, just like most people.” Raney said watching his father sleep on a couch for two months got the ball rolling on a business idea. Now the University Park resident and his wife, Jennifer, own the Dallas-area franchises of North Carolina-based 101 Mobility. “Most people assume they’re going to have to move out of the house, and many people actually do,” Gordon said. “They spend way too much money on moving costs alone, move to

Jennifer and Gordon Raney somewhere they don’t want to be just because they can’t get up the stairs.” That doesn't have to be the case. The Raneys offer their advice on making accessibility easier for yourself or a loved one. START WITH CONVERSATION nTalking with professionals in the medical or mobility fields

RESEARCH IS KEY nOnline retailers that offer equipment at a reduced cost are usually taking advantage of the customer. Often, the retailer will ship the equipment in boxes to the customer to put it together himself. “These companies will literally ship an elevator system to a sweet old lady for her to put it in herself,” Gordon said. “I honestly don’t know how this is legal.”

nJennifer said these online manufacturers are only interested in profits and are not concerned with the customers’ needs. “Often the worst part is once we start talking about it, we realize that what just showed up at their house isn’t even a good fit for them or their home,” she said. INSTALLATION IS EASY nMost equipment can be installed and removed quickly without compromising the aesthetics of the home. “Most people see a picture of the stair lift and automatically assume it’s mounting to the wall,” Gordon said. n Stair lifts are actually screwed into the stair itself for increased stability. Removing the equipment only requires the holes to be filled in, or perhaps no clean-up work at all. “If the stairs have carpet, you can run a vacuum over the spot where a screw was and you’ll never know it was there,” he said.

COMMUNITY Instructor Still Likes Horsing Around

FLIP-FLOPPING IS THEIR TRADE

By Todd Jorgenson

People Newspapers You might not recognize it amid the urban sprawl of today, but Becky Brown still can envision the area around Hillcrest Road and Park Lane as horse country. It was the perfect neighborhood for a teenager in the 4-H club at Hillcrest High School to sneak through barbed-wire fences for a peaceful ride after school. “It was all pasture across the street,” said Brown, whose parents bought her first horse for $175. “I would just keep my bridle in my locker.” The open fields around the old Caruth Farm have long since given way to NorthPark Center and other development, but those bonding moments between girl and equine instilled a passion in Brown that continues today. Brown has been teaching horsemanship for more than 40 years, and has been running her own school since 1988. Many of her current students grew up not far from where she did, and have followed their older relatives into riding. Brown gives lessons in riding either for pleasure or for competition in such disciplines as dressage, eventing, or show jumping. “It doesn’t matter if they want to compete or if they just want this to be part of their lives,” said

Jeremy and Lila Stewart model their colorful flip-flops with co-founder John Veatch at the Haskell Avenue shop.

Hari-Mari team mixes footwear, philanthropy By Sarah Bennett

People N ewspapers Jeremy Stewart had no idea that the friend he made on the St. Mark’s playground in fifth grade would eventually be one of his two business partners — and that his wife would be the other. Today, the St. Mark’s graduate runs Hari Mari, a flip-flop company, with Highland Park High School graduates John Veatch and Lila Stewart, who happens to be Jeremy’s wife. The unusual name traces back to Jeremy and Lila’s time abroad — specifically, the couple lived in Indonesia from 2007 to 2010, while Jeremy worked on a documentary and Lila volunteered at an orphanage. Hari means “sun” in Indonesian, while mari means “sea” in Latin. Put the two together, and you’ve got a flip-flop company. “In 2010, when we moved back, we were just shopping for flip-flops and couldn’t bring ourselves to buy the same brand that we’d been wearing for 15 years,” Lila said. “That’s kind of when the light went off.” Once they decided to start the compa-

Flip-flops show local Mavericks pride. ny — which officially launched in 2012 at St. Bernard Sports and online, the Stewarts were particular about what they wanted. For one, Jeremy was tired of only seeing flip-flops for men in black and brown — he wanted more color. And then there’s the issue of that annoying middle toe piece. “We found that there were just iterations of black and brown flip flops that were maybe comfortable, but there were also iterations of colorful flip flops that weren’t comfortable,” Jeremy said. “We never could find something that kind of married the two together.” So, they developed a memory-foam

center post that is patent-pending. In addition to that, the all-rubber outsoles provide strong traction in water, while the wave-pattern siping is designed to wick away excess moisture. But Hari Maris aren’t just about comfort and style. There’s also a social enterprise side: the company donates $3 for every pair purchased to fight pediatric cancer. Though the company is young and very much small-town based, it's already found quite a bit of success — Hari Maris have been featured in magazines such as Nylon Guys, Entrepreneur, and Garden and Gun. They’ve even been featured on the NBC morning show “Today.” “That’s the coolest part, when you see somebody out in the wild wearing your product, and you think, ‘I made that,’” Veatch said. It’s not bad for a flip-flop company in a landlocked city. “We felt there was a huge disconnect between the way most of these flip-flop companies speak to their audiences and who their audiences actually are,” Jeremy said. “They’re speaking to everybody in terms of a surfer, a beach volleyball player, someone on a stand-up paddle board in the ocean, and that really doesn’t resonate with kids in Dallas.” In addition to their presence in stores such as St. Bernard Sports, the Hari Mari crew is creating more of a storefront space in its Haskell Avenue warehouse. “We know we’ve only scratched the surface,” Jeremy said.

Hillcrest Alum Motivates Audiences On and Off Screen By Todd Jorgenson

People Newspapers After almost four decades living near the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, Glenn Morshower is back where it all began. The veteran character actor and his wife, Carolyn, recently moved from Los Angeles back to Preston Hollow, where Glenn Morshower they became high school sweethearts in the mid-1970s. He attended Hillcrest High School and she was a student at Highland Park, and they were married as teenagers 36 years ago. Morshower remains as busy as ever with guest spots on television shows and supporting roles in movies, and he doesn’t plan to slow down. But the move was prompted more by his off-screen roles. Morshower has increased his schedule as a motivational speaker, and he teaches acting classes in Dallas four days a week when he’s not in production. “We love being home, Morshower said. “We’ve been away for so long that we’re appreciating a brand new Dallas now.” His first exposure to acting came at age 11 during a Dallas Theater Center matinee of “A Christmas Carol.” Morshower told his mother during the intermission that he wished he was on stage. Within weeks, he began taking classes and was cast in commercials. His breakthrough came when he was cast in a lead role in the 1976 coming-of-age comedy The Drive-In, which prompted his move to Los Angeles the following year. Most viewers know Morshower from one of his many roles as a military man or authority figure, with his most famous being a Secret Service agent on “24” and a presidential adviser on “The West Wing.” In addition to numerous TV appearances, he’s also been in three Transformers films and has worked for directors ranging from George Clooney to Clint Eastwood to Ridley Scott. “I don’t mind being typecast. We put our kids through college on typecasting,” Morshower said. “I got tired of peo-

ple thinking that’s all I do. Now I’m being more selective and branching out a lot.” That’s part of what attracted him to a recurring role as a drug lord on the Netflix series “Bloodline,” which just finished shooting its first season in the Florida Keys. “I wanted something to rattle the cages of the viewers who are so accustomed to seeing me play the chief of police or the admiral bossing the troops around,” Morshower said. “It was so non-traditional for me.” For the past 28 years, Morshower has traveled around the

Morshower said. “I have a fulltime career as a speaker, which I love. I just adore people and always love to be of service. My job in this world is to remind people of the beauty of life and the beauty of their lives. You can think big and live large.” While his priorities might have shifted, Morshower remains passionate about acting and trying new roles. He is an executive producer on Flutter, an independent film that was released on demand in April. “I’ve had a great parade of successes,” he said. “Work has been better than ever.”

Friends Splash Into Swimsuit Business By Paige Skinner

Special Contributor When Amie Raney and a friend showed up on the same vacation wearing the same swimsuit, it launched a discussion. Raney and Kelly Bajec, both Preston Hollow residents, knew finding a swimsuit in Dallas during the offseason was difficult. “There’s only one place to go and that’s Everything But Water,” Bajec said. That was October 2013. The following February, Raney and Bajec were on a different vacation when they landed in Las Vegas. The city was host to a swimwear trade show that weekend. The women, who met through their children, decided to attend. From there, they began selling swimwear from Raney’s home. And now, one year later, they are expanding their business into a boutique called Reveal Swimwear. “Being moms ourselves, we kind of focus on finding suits that are a great fit, but still you felt pretty in,” Bajec said. “And maybe a suit you would wear with your kids, and one you would wear with your husband, or one that’s kind of different styles.” Raney and Bajec want to focus on bringing swimwear brands to Dallas that other stores don’t offer. Some of those brands include Flagpole Swim and Heidi Klein. “[Bajec] and I recognized that this was a perfect opportunity to establish our own

The store also will sell cover-ups that can go from the beach to the bar, as well as bags, jewelry, and shoes. Even though it’s open year-round, the women are confident there’s a market for the traveling woman.

CONTINUED FROM 32 Brown, who still occasionally competes in dressage. “They get the same attention.” Jennifer Murray and her two young daughters started taking lessons from Brown after they moved to the Park Cities from New York about five years ago. “It was the kind of riding that I liked to do in New York. She’s great with adults and kids both,” Murray said. “All of what she’s teaching is consistent with what the best in the dressage and show-jumping world would tell you. She’s really well-schooled in proper riding techniques.” Brown earned her certification in 1973 from the Talland School of Equitation in England. She later graduated from Texas Tech and went into the restaurant business with her husband, who founded Barbec’s near White Rock Lake. Since 2008, when she outgrew the farm in Dallas where she taught for 17 years, Brown has been based at BuckBranch Farm in Wilmer, where she stables about 15 school horses. The 130-acre facility has been owned by the same family since 1876.

"IF I CAN HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THE LANGUAGE OF THE HORSE, THEN IT CAN MAKE THE HORSES HAPPIER." B E C K Y B ROWN Both of her assistants are former students, including Brown’s daughter, Rebecca, who has coached the school’s competition team since 2009, with a few riders reaching international levels. Brown has more than 100 students, about a third of which are adults. Many of them find her through word-of-mouth, whether for individual lessons or group camps. She tries to use horsemanship to convey life lessons to some of her younger students in terms of relating to their horses. “To work with something large and nonverbal, you have to listen and be firmly empathetic. They’re such generous creatures. It’s built on trust, not brutality,” Brown said. “If I can help them understand the language of the horse, then it can make the horses happier. I hope they take it out into the world.”

Group Aims to Shape Preston Center's Future By Todd Jorgenson

People Newspapers It might not be quite so much fun, but members of the task force charged with steering future development around Preston Center are partying like it’s 1989. That year is when the city of Dallas adopted recommendations from the Preston Center Area Transition Study, which focused on Jennifer new zoning reguGates lations in the area in response to new city zoning codes. As part of that study, recommendations included a comprehensive Laura Miller traffic study for Preston Center every five years. In addition, the second level of the city-owned public parking garage in the aging retail center would be reserved for employees of the surrounding businesses. But no traffic studies were ever commissioned. And nobody followed through on enforcement of the suggested parking guidelines. Flash forward 26 years, and the 13 members of the Northwest Highway and Preston Road Area Plan Task Force are discussing — you guessed it — what to do about traffic and the parking garage. “I don’t know why it didn’t happen. That’s disconcerting,”

Meet the task force members: prestonhollowpeople.com/ community/prestoncenter-task-force

said Dallas council member Jennifer Gates, who is leading the development of the area plan. “But we don’t need to point fingers. We need to come together and move forward.” The task force includes residents and business leaders from Preston Center and the surrounding areas. Their basic goal during the next several months is to develop a vision to shape the future of the area. Their most recent meeting was held in front of an overflow crowd at St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church, just down the hall from where famed author Fannie Flagg was signing books. And it was quite a page-turner. Here are some of the other highlights: nThe skybridge proposed by Crow Holdings to link the second floor of a retail building to the top level of the garage, in order to lure a Tom Thumb supermarket to the space, is still a very contentious issue. Task-force members seem split on the idea, just like the members of the Dallas Plan Com-

mission, who gave the concept their endorsement by a narrow 7-6 vote in March. A council vote on the special-use permit likely will be set for early June. nTxDOT will begin construction next year on its project to install additional left-turn lanes in both directions from Northwest Highway on to Preston. The effort will narrow the medians and involve an upgrade and replacement of the current traffic signals. It will be similar to the fledgling project at the intersection of Preston and Royal Lane, hopefully with much better execution. nSince no city funds are being used for the study, Gates is still soliciting $100,000 from the community to supplement the $250,000 already put forth by the North Central Texas Council of Governments. That would help to hire a consultant and cover other fees. The task force is planning to have several more meetings focused on land use and traffic flow during the next several months, at least three of which will incorporate large community forums. “All of these concerns about traffic and parking that have not been addressed for 30 years need to be addressed by this group,” said former Dallas Mayor Laura Miller, who represents one neighborhood on the task force. “I think we can do it. We’re desperate to find solutions to make this area more livable.” Email todd.jorgenson@ peoplenewspapers.com

Don't Compare Baltimore to 1968

WORSHIP SERVICES

We live in an era of political correctness

pring is commencement for many colleges, and no doubt we will have a spate of celebrities and politicians exhorting the graduates in political-correct speak. The cover of Time magazine showed an aerial view of a black protest movement, probably Baltimore, with the boldened “2015” struck out and with “1968” in its stead. Nope. I was an undergraduate at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., in 1968, which has been dubbed by historians as a turning point in American history — a watershed year. College harkens back to nostalgic times, usually. When I skipped on to campus in the fall of 1967, I came with a wardrobe of shirtwaist dresses with coordinating hairbows and dainty shoes. To exit the only women’s dorm, coeds had to don a raincoat if wearing shorts or pants. If we missed curfew during the week (10 p.m.), or on weekends (midnight), we were dunned late minutes and could be grounded. Shorthaired males in coats and ties brought a corsage to us for football games. That December, I crooned on my date’s shoulders by the stage as Otis Redding belted out “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay.” His plane went down after that concert, and the Motown sound pretty much soon after. Spring semester saw the beginnings of the Vietnam anti-war protests with students picketing the ROTC and throwing Dow Chemical off campus when it came recruiting. Johnny Cash sang patriotic songs under an American flag to support the war while a few radical students burned their draft cards. While I was listening to the chancellor of Columbia University in a panel discussion, he got a call and left the stage — his administration building was being taken over by students demanding an end to all research pertaining to industries that were linked to the war. In Berkeley, the Free Speech movement led to protests and takeovers of buildings as the leaders demanded an end to paternalistic practices. Much to the chagrin of many parents, our proactive chancel-

LEN BOURLAND lor immediately abolished dress codes and hours, and allowed students to move off campus. Student health started dispensing birth-control pills in keeping with the “free love” movement that was emanating from San Francisco. Then in April of my freshman year, just down the road in Memphis, Martin Luther King was assassinated. Immediately, all hell broke loose on the myriad nearby black campuses, with campus rioting and buildings set afire. The city became eerily quiet as tanks and national guardsmen rolled down the streets and surrounded our nervous campus among others. Because the voting age had been lowered to 18, presidential candidates and political newsmakers arrived in droves.

"IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNTHINKABLE TO HAVE 'SAFE SPACE S' FOR THO SE OFFENDED BY DEBATE , AS IS THE PR ACTICE IN C OLLEGE CL AS SROOMS TODAY." Sen. Al Gore Sr. pranced on a white horse. William Kunstler, who was defending the Chicago Seven, popped by. Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver was on the lam from Cuba hiding out on the Fisk campus, it was reported. The campus chaplain led a candlelight peace vigil to the Capitol building downtown. Aspiring vice president Spiro Agnew (later to be elected and resign in disgrace) came to promote Nixon, while Democratic candidate Bobby Kennedy drew an overflow crowd in May talking about “powah to the people.” In June, he too was assassinated. Bob Dylan was singing “The Times, They Are a Changing.”

And change they did. My parents reluctantly allowed me to do a semester abroad in ’69 where “The Movement” — as European protest was dubbed — was in full swing. Amsterdam was the heart of the hippy movement, Carnaby Street in London the Mod movement. I got into some tear gas by running into a young communist Labor protest in Rome (it was still the height of the Cold War) and couldn’t cross the Seine in Paris when students there decided to strike. Everywhere people angrily denounced America because of Vietnam, while paradoxically congratulating us for landing men on the moon. Bell-bottoms and clogs and impossibly short dresses and boots replaced the sorority girl look. When I returned home, all the boys had hair down to their shoulders; strobe lights, psychedelic music, and more than just booze floated around the frat houses. Classrooms were alive with debates, particularly in the popular philosophy and poli-sci courses. It would have been unthinkable to have “safe spaces” for those offended by debate, as is the practice in college classrooms today. Our only social media was the classroom or dorm room. So is 2015 a flashback to 1968? Hardly. Today the technology of cell-phone videos is spotlighting white police brutality toward black male suspects while the technology of body cameras may be part of the solution. Bad cops? Boot ’em. They were around beating up white protestors outside the Democratic convention in Chicago and at Kent State. It’s power gone amuck. Racism? Certainly prejudice and fear of a subset of poor, undereducated often black youth who turn to violence out of directionless lives exists. But when for seven years we’ve had a black president and attorney general, in places where police brutality has occurred often blacks are the mayor, police commissioner, or prosecutors, the paradigm of the '60s doesn’t wash. For that analogy, let’s make it about being “right on” with “power to the people” by scrapping expensive failed government programs and discoursing honestly instead of pandering to political correctness.

BRIGGS FREEMAN SOTHEBY’S INTERNATIONAL REALTY

Unparalleled Estate in Heart of HP

Properties Reach Global Audience

Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate is thrilled to present an unparalleled estate on 1.1 acres in the heart of Highland Park. The home at 4700 St. Johns Drive, which the Gullutto+Barnes Group is offering for $15,985,000, boasts approximately 13,000 square feet of exquisite interiors, yet each room feels intimate. From the Syrian limestone of the striking façade to the one-of-a-kind mosaic backsplash in the kitchen, the quality of design and craftsmanship knows no bounds. Several hallways were designed to serve as art galleries. The home’s six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and three half-baths are augmented by an outdoor kitchen with a custom mosaic floor, a gym, a salon, and a media room that doubles as a safe room. That said, you would be hard pressed to find a safer location, as Highland Park’s police and firefighters are headquartered literally across the street.

The client was familiar with Sotheby’s reputation for luxury homes, and he wanted the highest quality professional service for his purchase. That’s the power of a globally recognized brand.

Yikes! OMG! This can’t be true, my house has not increased in value by that much! This is the homeowners reaction to mail from the Dallas County Appraisal District. True, values have gone up considerably, more than ever before in this market; therefore, the DCAD increases the taxable value of homes. What to do about it? There are various ways to tackle this issue, but do act. Outlined are ways to approach the situation. First, submit a protest including what you think taxable value of your house is. Deadline is May 31; therefore, if you decide against protesting, just cancel. For opinion on value, contact a Premier Producer agent (see page 19) who will give you a comparative market analysis of sales in your immediate area and give you additional suggestions. Once you file for a protest, DCAD will give you a PIN to review values in your neighborhood . Secondly, consider how you would want to challenge the value. Texas law now requires appraisal districts to offer online property tax protests. Another option is to take your documents to the appraisal district office and ask to see an appraiser, who will review your documents and determine if your opinion is valid. If a reduction is appropriate, great, if not, you still may ask for a hearing and continue your protest. You may also set an appointment for a panel of volunteers and a DCAD appraiser to review if your value is too high. The fourth approach is to hire a Property Tax Consultant, who gets paid in various ways: contingent on their success, a flat fee, etc. Thirdly, remember taxing authorities do not set tax rates until September, so contact your political representatives and let them know how you feel about a raise in rates: city, county and school.

extraordinary lives | extraordinary homes Connecting to Capitol Hill Yet technology is flattening barriers, particularly in regard to civic engagement. And as people now have access to 24/7 news outlets, they are becoming more aware of how policy affects everyday life. This, in turn, causes more people to be interested in and attuned to changes in policy (and politics in general). Ory and his team are using Phone2Action’s tools to help turn that interest into action. Phone2Action’s first campaign made it possible for thousands of people across five Southern states to email their elected officials in support of improving educational options for low-income African American youth. “Watching people take action at the first rally was a magical moment,” Ory says. “We knew we were on to something big.” Jeb Ory created Phone2Action to help constituents connect with their elected leaders.

t St. Johns, St. Marks, and Highland Park High School, Jeb Ory learned how to think critically, write well, and articulate his vision—an education he took with him to the wild town of Washington, D.C, where he and his co-founders run the award-wining company Phone2Action.

In 2015, Phone2Action will roll out new technology and continue supporting campaigns led by organizations as diverse as the American Heart Association, which is based in Dallas, and the Enlisted Association of the National Guard (EANGUS). The majority of the adults in the United States have smartphones and yet more than half can’t name one of their senators. But Phone2Action is working to change all of that, one text message at a time.

Phone2Action is a digital platform that helps organizations gather supporters and connect them directly with elected officials on the city, state, and federal levels. “Officials want to hear from their constituents,” Ory says. “And constituents should exercise their rights of holding officials accountable.” The problem is that the two often operate separate from each other.
