Dear Kathleen and Hunter,


I hope this note finds everything going well with you. I hope Naomi is having a much deserved fun spring break. Kylie is skiing in Vail with the boyfriend's family and is having a great time! Zak starts his today and is supposed to be going to Costa Rica but his flight was canceled due to a Volcano that erupted there. Hopefully he can get there tomorrow. I wish I was in Costa Rica or Vail but someone has to stay home and pay for these vacations!!! Are you all going anywhere fun for Sidwell spring break?


I am writing to ask you all a favor. I truly hate asking for favors but I feel this person is so deserving that I am forcing myself to step outside my comfort zone. Kylie's boyfriend's sister is Alexandra Levine she has applied for an Atlantic Media Editorial Fellowship. I know you all have mentioned you have a good friend at The Atlantic and I was wondering if you would be willing to bring Alexandra to his attention and put in a good word for her. Alexandra is a really incredible girl - graduated from Penn and now at Columbia Journalism school and working at The Atlantic is her dream job. As a person she is warm, kind, funny and super smart! I think reading the recommendation from her professor at Columbia, her cover letter and her resume which are all attached will give you a very good feel of who she is.


I am sure that this is truly the most competitive of all fellowships in journalism as The Atlantic is the top of the food chain in print journalism. Anything that could be done just to have her application given an extra read would be so appreciated.


I hope to see you all sooner then later. Thank you in advance for anything that you can do and if you aren't comfortable because you don't know her I completely understand but I figure it was worth asking.


xoxo,
Mimi
