William Lederer

Miss the North Shore and Chicago, friends and family as I have been living with my wife in St Petersburg, FL since 2018 and formerly Fairfield County, Connecticut and Lake Forest, Illinois since the last reunion. Continue to prefer life on the bleeding edge running global tech businesses, innovating and helping others in digital media and marketing, data, technology. Taught grad school in NYC part-time for years. Published 6th book, most recent one a media industry textbook. Very appreciative of my New Trier experiences. The older I get the luckier I know I have been.

My favorite experiences involve WNTH, Winnetka friends and institutions, Lake Michigan, American pop culture and politics of the late 70s, Chicago trips, and New Trier sports.

I also have very deep, positive memories of my teachers, classmates, and class/non-class reading and assignments.

So much was expected of us, we expected so much of ourselves. My least favorite memories are of so very many disappointments, but if I knew my immediate family was going to turn out so well, I would not have sweat how I got here quite so much.
