Class of 1958

Paul Schaffer writes that he has enjoyed reading about his fellow ’58s and being reminded about his Brown years and the friendships that were made, especially with his roommate, Dr. Bernie Asher. Paul, who has been married to his artist wife, Betty, for 62 years, is still active in his family’s business, A La Vieille Russie, specializing in Russian art and precious objects. “Our son Mark, despite his PhD in plant molecular genetics (Harvard, Berkeley, Weizmann), is active in our business, and our daughter, Catherine Schaffer Rose ’86  (Columbia MBA), is actively raising our two grandchildren, while continuing to use her business skills.”
