Subject: RE: Margot Mayo - biographic
Apologies for the great time lapse. I only just found this space, doing a search, which I do perodicly.

    Margot Mayo was one of our teachers at Woodward School, in Brooklyn N.Y. The Years i was there were about "62-'70. Of course she was there before i arrived.
    She tought music, "Orchestra", & square dancing. She was wonderful, quirky, and inspiring.   She played a funky old piano, as far as i remember.   She did square dance calls, and our class, all of 14 to 16 students square danced, laughed, and had a great old time. We also did the virginia reel.   Pretty much all i can remember right about now.
          I regret i didn't keep up with the autoharp, i was playing in "Orchestra".   
             Regards,
