Frost Wilkinson
I’m semi-retired as a freelance cinematographer and I’m devoting the balance of my career to teaching. I teach cinematography, lighting and film-video production courses at Univ. of South Carolina, Columbia, SC, Trident Technical College in Charleston, SC and Claflin Univ. in Orangeburg SC. I also serve as a visiting artist for special arts programs for middle school and high school youngsters. After 40 years in the film and television industry shooting domestic and international assignments, I enjoy teaching and mentoring young people immensely. Susan, my wife of 30 years, and I have four granddaughters, ages from newborn to 12. I long to hear from any Earlham folks, class of ’63 people in particular. Email Frost Wilkinson

Linda Tate Huntington
After I left FDA in June 2006, I saw "An Inconvenient Truth" and later "A Crude Awakening." Rising carbon emissions and decreasing oil supplies spell disaster in the not too distant future. The world's population explosion was created by cheap oil. I've been involved in environmental projects, including tree planting and education in how to reduce your carbon footprint. I'm also working on my 50th high school reunion. In Feb 2009 I went with 14 women from my church for a Smaller World service trip to Honduras under Sustainable Harvest International.
