Other fun facts about me:

Since I can't come to the reunion, here is the rundown of the last decade--I'm cutting and pasting this from my "bio": Ryann is the Harper's Guild Award-Winning lyricist and New York City-based writer/producer of theatre and film. Her lyrics have been heard on the hit theatre series, The Battery’s Down, (Ghost Light Records) along with Pulitzer & Tony Award winners, and Rosie O'Donnell's Sirius Satellite radio show.
Her musical VOTE! (which takes place at a fictitious version of GVHS and features a Ms. Fowler character) premiered at the Minetta Lane Theatre Off-Broadway in 2009. In addition to VOTE!, Ryann and collaborator Steven Jamail are the artistic directors of littlewowproductions, currently developing three new musicals: Nicholas & Alexandra, Tercio de Muerte, and Curious Johnson (the Toothfairy musical).
Her work has been performed throughout New York & Los Angeles including the Zipper Theatre, Theatre Row, Upright Cabaret, and Joe’s Pub at the Public Theatre as part of the Composer Exposure series. She has been a guest speaker at Emory University, Rice University, and Indiana- Bloomington, where students workshopped VOTE! in 2009.
Her Broadway production credits include Spring Awakening, Sweeney Todd, Company & Will Ferrell: You're Welcome, America.
She holds a degree in English Literature from Rice University and will begin her work towards a PhD in creative writing at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland in September 2010.

Best High School Memory:

I have a lot-- The parties we threw at my apt senior year, flooding the bathroom of the Mandalay Bay presidential suite the night of Prom, somehow ending up the ONLY person from our government class to end up at the movie we were ALL supposed to see with Ms. Fowler (causing me to get teacher's pet) (and subsequently being stranded there with her because one of you had stolen my pathfinder and lost track of time bringing it back-- you know who you are). But pretty much all of them involve the people I still consider my best friends to this day: Emily Chandler, Erin O'Connor, Lauren Clayton, Brandon Blackwell, Jared Lebo & Dan Kravitz. No matter where I go in this crazy life, nobody understands me like you guys!
