I had to share this before I go …
If you go to the newly launched historical pages of the web site of the city of Everett, Massachusetts, you will find a list of interesting folks who started out in good, old Everett. Some of Everett’s most noteable citizens include:
Chick Corea (Grammy-winning Jazz musician)
Ellen Pompeo (of Grey’s Anatomy fame)
MaryAnn Cocca-Leffler (children’s author/illustrator)
and (gulp!)
Loree Griffin Burns (children’s author).
That’s right, I am officially notable. Neato mosquito!*
* Neato mosquito is a turn-of-phrase I used a lot during my Everettt days.
