What have you been up to since you graduated?

My goals in High School were to become an airline pilot and radio newscaster. Well, I've sort of succeeded in my goals. I was a radio newscaster from '72-'79 in Massillon, Elyria, Canton, Dayton and Louisville. From '79-86, I was a TV reporter in Dayton and Greensboro/High Point/Winston-Salem. Since April of '86, I have been a flight attendant, living the great airline life of travel and time off

Name Change Story: Changed name legally from Norm(an) to Neil in March of '90. Hopefully I'll live at least 10 more as Neil than Norm.

School Story

Following SHHS, I spent one year at Cuyahoga Community College and my last 3 years at Kent State. I was mere feet away from where the May 1970 shooting at KSU happened. I was on the front side of Taylor Hall, the Journalism building, and the shooting happened at the rear of the building, which was small as college buildings go. I was a mere observer but so were at least two of the victims
