I will forever be grateful to Mrs. Kurzenknabe for "getting" my son as he struggled through a school system that did not reward a free, artistic spirit such as his. She was thrilled that he liked and understood Shakespeare and to this day, he remembers her fondly. He is a creature designer in Hollywood and has been for the last 15 years. Teachers like Mrs. K help keep the spirit of young artists alive. RIP, and thank you.
