Curator's Comment
In May 2001, Lisa Frost graduated summa cum laude from Boston University. She had been a dedicated student since childhood. Lisa’s father credits her sixth-grade teacher as a formative role model for Lisa. Lisa created this biographical timeline for that teacher’s class at Trabuco Mesa Elementary School in Orange County, California, when she was 12 years old. It documents milestones from her birth in 1978 to the start of the school year in 1990.
