His employer, who supported his decision to return to school, also appreciated the program’s value. “When I told them about my plans, they were forward-thinking,” he recalls. “They recognized the importance of the skill set not just for my practice but for its availability in government in general.” It was clear that acquiring such specialized knowledge would really benefit his clients, Salim says.

  • Here Her Gifts Are
    Roslyn Kind’s dazzling new concert showcase combines Pop hits, romantic ballads and captivating favorites from Broadway & the movies. She also revisits songs from her first album (newly re-released by Sony’s Broadway Masterworks) alongside new material and personal stories. “I want to take people on an emotional journey with songs that I love and songs I feel I can translate to the audience.” From Cabaret Scenes: Gorgeous to look at, with a magical voice to match, she had the audience at her entrance with “It’s a Beautiful Day.” She then took us on a lovely trip through The Beatles, Leonard Bernstein, Sergio Mendes, and the Bergmans, to name just a few in her hour-long set. Kind is able to pull off the near impossible: an intimacy that is warmly welcomed due to an adorable, sweet, slightly edgy personality, coupled with the confidence of a seasoned performer who knows where her gifts are. So many highlights: “I Can Cook Too”; “All That Jazz”; “It Only Takes a Moment”; encoring with “Can You Read My Mind?” Kind showed a versatility of emotion, insight, and a superb understanding of everything she was enchanting us with. Spending an hour with Roslyn Kind reinforces what critics and audiences have long known; she's simply special. It is evident that little has changed with her since she burst on the nightclub scene at the beginning of her career (which has included success on Broadway, movies and television). Her reputation as a fluent vocalist with clarity of tone gives her a natural, emotional connect on well-chosen songs (and several selections that were mainstays from the past.) Kind achieves all that is required.
