Natalia and Jennifer are daughters of Dr. Fiore — a professor who acted as a mentor for me for a time. Apparently, I spent some time with her daughters — Tara and I did — and this is a weird thank-you card.

I’m not sure what happened to Dr. Fiore. I think when I chose Dr. Sipiora to direct my dissertation, she was finished with me. Sad, really.

I’m going to date this card around the summer of 1997, when Contact was released.
