Jim Reidy a Presenter at Human Resources Association Meeting Attorney James Reidy of the Labor, Employment and Employee Benefits Practice Group at Sheehan Phinney Bass + Green has developed an entertaining spin on the popular game of Trivial Pursuit, which he presented to the members of the Greater Concord Human Resources Association on December 16.

Shumaker Named to Democrats' Nomination Calendar Panel Concord attorney and former ambassador Terry Shumaker will serve on the DNC nomination calendar panel. He is one of two New Hampshire Democrats named to the party's 40-member commission, which has been charged with making recommendations on how the party should go about nominating its presidential candidate-and deciding whether the process should begin in Iowa or New Hampshire. Teaching Not Easier, Two former attorneys, Stephanie Ferro and Mary Ellen McGorry, have become high school teachers, Ferro at Manchester's Central High and McGorry at West High. Both love their new careers. "It's draining, but it's a wonderfully rewarding profession," says McGorry. Ferro agrees. "It's serious, but there's a light-heartedness to teaching." Ferro says she wouldn't discourage anybody from going to law school, but that she didn't like the business part of being a lawyer. She teaches civics and Law and Ethics, so keeps her hand in a bit with her former profession. McGorry teaches American and British literature. "I could not have made a better choice. I've found my place," she says. "There's not been one day when I've gotten up and said, 'Ugh, I have to go to work today.'" Tony McManus Named to Board of Symphony Orchestra Anthony McManus has recently become a member of the Board of the New Hampshire Symphony Orchestra. Tony has been a member of the New Hampshire Bar Association since 1974 and is a solo practitioner in Dover. |
