I had academic class- es, yes, but now my days were surrounded by doing what I loved to do.” He adds, “All of a sudden, I was one of the popular kids and it was all about how talented you were.” Several young performers who went to performing arts high schools concurred that Erik Altemus the experience gave them a leg up in their careers and, more importantly, spoke di- rectly to their passion for the arts.

  • Dr. Simon Gelman's Legacy Letter
    2014 Dr. Simon Gelman’s Legacy Letter: Question and Answers Foundation for Anesthesia Education and Research, FAER Introduction As a five‐year‐old, Dr. Simon Gelman would sit on his grandfather’s lap and yank on his long white beard. His mother would admonish him. “Don’t pull on your grandfather’s beard; it’s painful.” His grandfather said, “No, it’s okay, it’s actually pleasant.” When Dr. Gelman retold this story, he added with an unvarnished tone, “We laughed together not knowing then that grandfather would die during the blockade in Leningrad in 1942.” “He was buried somewhere in a mass grave; we don’t know where.” Dr. Gelman has lived an adventurous life that he is the first to admit, was not by choice. No matter where he was pulled in his life, he made it pleasant. He made what appeared to be negative into a positive. He was born and grew up in Leningrad in the Soviet Union; emigrated to Israel when he was 38 in 1973, during the Yom Kippur War. In 1976, he moved to Cleveland, Ohio in the United States. In 1978, he moved to Birmingham, Alabama where he finished his residency in anesthesiology in 1979, and became the chairman of that department in 1989. Between 1992 until 2002, he was chairman of the Department of Anesthesiology at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School. He has made significant scientific contributions to the field of anesthesiology, including ischemia‐reperfusion injury and organ protection, hepatic effects of anesthetic agents and the effects of aortic cross‐clamping on hemodynamics At seventy‐eight years young, he continues his clinical work and is a full‐time faculty member at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School.

  • Theatre and Performance Studies at the Moscow Art Theatre
    Theatre and Performance Studies at the Moscow Art Theatre Moscow, Russia May 31 - June 30, 2015 This study abroad program is coordinated by the NIU Study Abroad Office (SAO), in cooperation with the NIU School of Theatre and Dance and the Moscow Art Theatre, Moscow, Russia. The NIU Moscow Art Theatre Semester offers students a living experience with one of the most accomplished and groundbreaking theaters in the world. The founders of the Moscow Art Theatre created a new form of drama, believing that all theater must reflect and illuminate the human condition. Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko, primarily through their association with the works of Anton Chekhov, maintained that the crucial element in the art of theater is ensemble. They created a company where actors, directors, writers, and designers have been making theater together for years, sometimes lifetimes. The approach to theater in Russia is very different from most of what is experienced in the United States. Because it is seen as an expression of the Russian identity, theater holds an exalted place in the culture. The NIU Moscow Art Theatre Semester offers young theater artists the unique opportunity to engage in this demanding and highly rewarding artistic environment. DATES: The program will officially begin on June 1, 2015, in Moscow and will end on June 30, 2015. Students are expected to coordinate their own travel arrangements in order to arrive in Moscow on June 1, 2015. (Arrival and departure dates will be confirmed at a later date will be made through a consolidator organized by the director of the program.) PROGRAM OVERVIEW: This is the fifth offering in an institutional relationship between the Northern Illinois University School of Theatre and Dance and the Moscow Art Theatre (MXAT).
