"This collection of Michael's wonderful photos is designed for a rather exclusive group of people - alumni and others already familiar with Saint John's. It's his hope, he tells me, 'that in looking through the book, people remember and relate some of their own stories and memories - either to someone who doesn't yet know Saint John's or maybe to an old dorm pal or just as well to themselves. I've taken the pictures,' he says, 'but they're everyone's memories. Saint John's is everyone's place and hopefully there is a picture for everyone.' For me there are dozens." Jon Hassler '55
