What Really Happened to the Class of '65 | David Wallechinsky, Michael Medved

Pickpick

In 1965, TIME profiled the senior class of the elite Palisades High School in L. A. and 10 years later Michael Medved and David Wallechinsky interviewed the graduates to learn how their lives had turned out. The result is part biopic, part memoir, with brief narratives framing the subjects‘ memories and reflections. Anyone who ever wonders about long lost high school friends - and what they might recall about you - would find much to ponder here.

Nute Oh, I like this type of curiosity. Why that particular high school? Is that the high school that both authors attended? 2y
Bigwig Yes, the authors both attended this school. In addition, the school had been featured in a TIME profile years earlier. So the idea was for the authors to find out what had happened to their classmates, and due to the previous magazine profile, general readers might already be familiar with many of the personalities. It‘s from another era, but the insights are universal. 2y
