Brad Neuhaus in LA






























Mentoring Brad


This past weekend, I was contracted by the father of May UT Grad Brad Aaron Neuhaus to coach him in the process of networking in Los Angeles. Brad will soon graduate with a degree in corporate communications and in addition to the opportunities that curriculum will offer, he also has an interest in the entertainment industry and acting. And so we flew to LA and met with corporate leaders, engineers, photographers and actors - all of whom were willing to give Brad the advice and council he needed to hear. We visited Modern Film Video Inc. - one of the top post production houses in the US where television and motion pictures are finalized or broadcast real time around the world - and just so happens to be the home of iTunes. Brad had a good visit with Greg Gorman, toured Dreamworks, had a round table dinner with people working in the industry - and finished with Breakfast staring Days of Our Lives actress Melanie Dupuy. It was fun, I am home, I am tired - and while I flew home to Texas, Brad went surfing for the first time at Venice Beach with Greg Bonnet.

Wedding- Carl and Virginia Deal 1941 - Duke Chapel

A Note From My Father - Carl Deal - August 4, 1941

Saturday Night,
Dear Family,
As you may have suspected I arrived here quite safely Tuesday morning. Since that time all has been going well enough. I spend my mornings in the photography lab and my afternoons are in the Chem. building. It seems that I shall work on dipoles next year for my research and I have been learning to run the apparatus - it is quite an elaborate setup and measurements can be made on more dilute solutions than anywhere else in the World. I have some literature on the subject and have been trying to do a little reading too.
I wrote Agness & Herald yesterday. I shall have my final exam on next Saturday and will then be ready to come home. However. I shall have to have about $5.00 in order to eat the last day or two and in order to get home.
I am getting my questionnaire ready to mail tomorrow.
I guess that is all. Be good. See you next weekend.
Love Carl
