By 1995, it had become a ramshackle piece about Clint Eastwood. <br /><br />A few years ago I emailed Glavin from Switzerland, where I had just given birth to my husband's and my second daughter and was trying to freelance. Writing/editing gigs in English are hard to come by in Bern, and I worried that I would never be able to reenter magazine journalism. Glavin commiserated, but then he said something like: "But Meg, you've achieved something so much greater. You've made a family." That meant a lot.<br /><br />I did make it back to writing and editing - stateside - and am now juggling work and family, and feeling so lucky to have both. I miss Glavin a lot, but I still hear his voice in my head. I am grateful for that.meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17774417014509462074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371028182709754366.post-74052630496873170812010-05-23T11:17:41.647-04:002010-05-23T11:17:41.647-04:00Lisa,

He was my professor for class of '08, and it was nice to read that he was as vibrant then as he was early in his career.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16378474943034202998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5371028182709754366.post-59746281715110989602010-05-20T13:26:52.403-04:002010-05-20T13:26:52.403-04:00Thanks for writing this.
