COLD SPRING, NEW YORK

Kay Scott and I married in 1985. We live in Cold Spring, NY with our three Golden Retrievers.

After graduating from QC in '72, I became a very successful musician/singer/songwriter and international music star...well, in my dreams...

Instead, I've worked with nonprofits or change-oriented organizations, as Director of Human Relations in Wilmington, NC, Mayoral Consultant in Charleston, SC, Vice President for Marketing and Communications for Outward Bound USA National Headquarters in Garrison, NY (for 20 years).

In 1998, I left Outward Bound and started a dog training and photography business. I became a full time photographer of dog agility and other canine competition events in the northeast (www.barryrosen.com).

After contracting COVID in early 2020, and subsequently dealing with other health setbacks, I retired from event photography in 2022. I still enjoy photographing birds and nature.

Kay earned her Ph.D in Social Work in 2014 and is an Associate Vice President for St. John's Riverside Hospital in Yonkers NY. She plans to join me in retirement soon. In 2023, we bought a cabin on Green Lake, Maine where we look forward to enjoying lots of fun time, hiking, biking, kayaking and traveling.

NEW YORK

Since 2008, the big news is that Wendy, a former professional dancer who grew up in England, and I were married in September, 2009. We went down to City Hall with a few close friends to tie the knot and had a small reception at Columbia’s Faculty House on a snowy night a few months later. Do not have any 8 year old kids, but do have a delightful stepdaughter who teaches ballet to adults in Providence. The other update is that, after 33 years of living in Chelsea, I moved to Wendy’s apartment on the Upper West Side overlooking the Hudson River. Even though it is only 4 miles north, the neighborhood feels quite different.

Am still working as a lawyer at Columbia University—in my 26th year. Don’t think that I will ever match Mike Solomon’s tenure at CUNY’s Office of the General Counsel, but do expect to be working for at least another 2 years. A couple of years ago, we completed the acquisition of all the property to build Columbia’s new campus in Manhattanville. We had to buy 50 individual parcels from almost as many different property owners. Three academic buildings are up and running and many more are planned for this 17-acre campus from 125 Street to 132 Street and from Broadway to 12th Avenue. I also head the legal work for the clinical trials group at the University and Hospital and was a co-author of a paper published by the Association of American Medical Schools about contractual provisions in clinical trial agreements. The paper is not a best seller.

Am healthy and still play tennis, run, and swim—an indoor track and swimming pool are one minute away from my office. Would very much like to see HOB members more often-- certainly those who live in the New York area. A few years ago, Dave Vogel gave a lecture at Columbia, which I attended, and we had a great time catching up. Looking forward to getting together with old friends.
