I’ve written many features for St. Timothy’s School, a school for girls in Stevenson, Maryland, that has some amazing graduates. Some of my favorites are about…

• Lucy Tamlyn, former U.S. Ambassador to the African nation of Benin.

• JQ Dickinson Saltworks, a family-run West Virginia company that makes artisanal salt.

• Lynden Miller, who designed the Conservatory Garden in New York City’s Central Park

• Bettina Burr, a Rothschild heir who donated art that the Nazis had stolen from her family to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
