Caroline Danois-Maricq wrote: "My name is Caroline Danois-Maricq. Belgian, vietnamese of origine. Adopted by Belgian parents. I left the Lycée in 1975 or '76. I remember names such as Marc Zeitoun, Micha Zabotin, Robert Mouton, Elisabeth Van Bockstael, Lisa Bialkin, Jean-Paul Morreau, etc.
My father worked for Unicef, so we have travelled a lot. After New-York, we went to Thaïland, after Abidjan. Since then, I live in Belgium.
I have a master degree in family therapy and sexuality. Now I'm looking forward to find time to do a doctorate. But time flies and responsibilities eat one's up. My daughter is 17 years old, and next year will be entering a university for biochemical studies. I wonder where she got those qualities, for I'm far from being able to understand anything about that.
My husband, a journalist, and I have two guest-houses in the Belgian Ardennes. It was an old townhouse and village school which we have renovated in four years. You can see the pix at www.alacourderecre.eu.
Painting and writing are still my passion: 'Pas de fatalité' is a poetry book edited at the Dossiers d'Aquitaine, and paintings have been exhibited in different countries. You can see pix of them www.carolinedanois.com [or, click on link below]. I'm preparing two exhibitions in Madrid and France. Actually, I'm working on different psychological programs on post trauma, family secrets, adoption case studies, and grief works. Otherwise, my husband and I are developing different artistical events at our guesthouses.
My brother Etienne ('74), nine years elder and who graduated from the Lycée, is living in Madrid with his wife and daughter. He is an engineer, worked for Schlumberger and now is counselor.
I would be very glad to have news from anyone who had shared school time with me."

● "Dorka Keehn has always wanted to change the world, first through politics and more recently through art. And she’s very curious and wants to know what makes people tick. She is an award winning filmmaker, political activist and aspiring jazz singer. Her documentary film “OF CIVIL WRONGS & RIGHTS: The Fred Korematsu Story” won two Emmys in 2001. She is a founder of EMERGE, a leadership training program for Democratic woman across the country who want to run for political office at the local and state levels; and of Women Count, a national nonpartisan media campaign and educational program that mobilized women voters for the 2000 elections. Twice San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown appointed her to the SF Commission on the Status of Women, where she still serves. She was the West Coast Director of Gloria Steinem’s Voters For Choice, the largest non-partisan, independent pro-choice political action committee in the U.S. During years of political burnout, Dorka produced documentaries for television. She has served on innumerable Boards of Directors of women’s, environmental, media and educational organizations." (From Keehn on Art;
