Carrying The Flag


As you tune in tonight, Robel Teklamariam for the second Olympics in a row will be carrying in the Ethiopian flag. He is an NCS graduate, from the class of 1989. Selden and I were his dorm parents in Woods House when he was a sixth grader and his mother - who was working for the United Nations - was assigned to North Korea. Click on this text to access a link to a New York Times interview filmed for the 2006 Olympics in Torino. (The video shows Robel skiing in Colorado, a short interview with Hock, and some pictures of him when he as a 12 year-old at North Country School.)
