Before the band plays me off—thanks as always to Karen, Len, and Ali Rushfield for their support, Stacey Grenrock Woods and the Memoirists Club, and to Rob Barrett and Meredith Artley at the L.A. Times for giving me some time and space to knock this out, and to the world’s greatest Web team—Joseph Kapsch, Lora Victorio, Jevon Phillips, Rebecca Snavely, Patrick Day, Denise Martin, and Stephanie Lysaght—for holding me up through it all.
And mostly thanks to Hampshire College. For all the rocky miles we’ve been down, you provided the most memorable years of my life, years that made me who I am today, and without them, there would have been no memoir.
