Abstract
I graduated from Forest Hills High School in 1948 and did not meet with Dr. Brandwein after that. He encouraged me to enter the Westinghouse Science Talent Search (which I definitely would not have known about or done without his interest). I won an honorable mention.

Notes
- 1.
Editor’s note: A year after Rothstein graduated from Forest Hills, she contacted Dr. Brandwein and, in the summer and fall of 1949, received two longhand responses from him. They are reproduced below. All of Brandwein’s letters were handwritten unless he had a secretary, which in 1949, when he was still at Forest Hills, he did not. “I don’t type,” he once explained to me, “because I cannot type.” A short, ineptly typed note proved him right.

Lines taken from two stanzas of Chaucer’s Ballade of Good Counsel.
