Dr. Helen Heineman was an English professor when I attended Framingham State University (then Framingham State College). She later became President of the school. I never had her for a teacher, but I did interview her in 1994 her for a Gatepost feature story about her annual live reading of A Christmas Carol (which I also attended and enjoyed). This past Saturday, she was in attendance at the 90th birthday celebration celebration of The Gatepost. She sat at the nineties table with me and other friends. Many of us didn't recognize her until she was invited to speak. She was as attentive and as sharp as she was almost three decades ago.
