Dear Rosalind,
How are you?! I recently met up with Sue
Grant-Lewis and we reminisced fondly about you. I now work in the
International Education & Research department at Sesame Workshop (formely
Children's Television Workshop) where I oversee the educational content
development, research, and outreach activities on some of our Sesame Street
coproductions in India, South Africa, etc.

I am hoping you can help me broadcast the following two job announcements
as widely as possible among potentially qualified and interested
candidates. One of them is for a job in New York (working with me) and the
other is in Cairo, Egypt. Please forward along to any people or listservs
or student career/job offices (at Harvard and elsewhere) that would be
appropriate.

Many thanks!
Seeta
