John H. Linscott '51

John H. Linscott '51, featured in the Maine Sunday Telegram last summer, released his first album, Manhattan Lady, 13 original jazz tunes "with a classic sound in the style of Gershwin, Berlin and Porter." Linscott plays piano and tenor saxophone on the album; his daughter, Anne, is lead vocalist. Although he continues to work as a sales representative for Pine Tree Retirement Planning, Linscott has played everything from Big Bands to solos and has written music in his spare time during the last 58 years. Said Anne: "This is the career he should have been in all along" * Phoenix Life Insurance Company recently honored John C. Edes '58 with its Donor's Award, which recognizes exemplary financial advisors by making charitable donations in their names to community organizations of their choice. Edes has a long record of community involvement and currently is a member of the board of directors of the North Central Chamber of Commerce and of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce.
