SHAMS-TABRAIZ MUZAFFAR
Shams Tabraiz Muzaffar is one of my closest friends. We first met early in college at UT Austin on the steps of Dobie movie theater. While he was initially suspected to be stalking our friend Arun, it turned out we all just happened to live on the same dorm floor. He currently works as a researcher for a healthcare worker’s labor union based in California whose many functions include negotiating better worker contracts, developing policy measures some of which have helped to raise the minimum wage and to expand Medicaid, and helping to reform troubled industries such as the dialysis industry. Prior to California, he spent significant time living, teaching, and working abroad in countries including Pakistan and Eritrea. His family moved to Texas in the early 80’s, and he suspects a large factor in this decision was his dad’s love of Westerns and cowboys. The stories of his parents’ kindness and generosity are refreshingly hard to fathom. From an early age, he could see there was significant injustice in the world, and he has been an activist for most of his life. After taking a ‘break’ to stretch our legs, we unfortunately did not finish our conversation entirely and didn’t delve into his harrowing addiction to ice cream, milkshakes, and fast food.

KATHERINE JEANS
Katherine Jeans is my friend who I met at the Third Unitarian church and whose monthly book club I joined. She grew up in rural Kentucky with loving parents and five siblings during the Great Depression. Although experiencing bullying in her youth, she moved to beautiful Florida where she learned to make friends and wrote book reviews for the school newspaper. After marriage, she lived briefly in Georgia and Mississippi before arriving to Chicago in 1947. She soon started working on the campaign for Henry Wallace as well as being part of the tenant’s council to help ensure affordable housing. After a difficult marriage and divorce, she managed and raised her 3 children as well as finding a home and community at Third Unitarian Church. At age 60, she pursued a dream and became a clinical psychologist. She practiced clinical psychology for a time before becoming a teacher at Triton College where she also helped organize a union for the part-time faculty. She enjoys people, and feels fortunate to have such a tremendous group of friends and a wonderful family that she deeply loves.

MEREDITH MORRIS
Meredith Morris is my friend and former neighbor. She currently is the Director of Community Relations at a memory care assisted living community serving residents with dementia and their families. She grew up in Evanston, IL and after being told her fingers were too short, her trajectory towards being a professional cellist tragically ended. Beginning in high school and later in college, she hosted her own music and news radio shows. While ambivalent about high school, she loved her time at Earlham college where she majored in psychology. Taking a one year sabbatical to re-assess her career path, she worked at a Quaker boarding school and learning the difficulties in wrangling young women. After initially considering graduate school in poetry, she went into journalism and has worn different professional hats including managing public relations for clients such as Brookfield Zoo and the Morton Arboretum. Throughout her life, she has been drawn to community service, and always has a found a way to get involved in the local communities that she lives in.
