4A Networking Event Creates Connections
Cranbrook Schools alumni from across the decades connected with HUB alumni and current CK students when 4A alumni hosted a networking event during Reunion weekend. The group, which included CK student leadership from 4A and their faculty advisors, HUB alumni, former members of Kusanya Watu, the Black student organization from the 1970s.Read More
4A Alumni leaders Daniel Jefferson '92 and Kamau Williams '90 welcomed all participants, and introduced Akosua Barthwell Evans '64, who came to Kingswood as a seventh grader in 1the 1958-59 school year, leading the way for other Black students. Phil Brown '73 talked about the evolution of student organizations during his time at Cranbrook, and introduced fellow members of Kusanya Watu from the class of 1975. 4A alumna Amina Watson-Miller '89 introduced her children Damani '22 and Aya '19 as multi-gen 4A alumni.
Director of Schools Jeff Suzik gave an update on the federal grant that was awarded to Cranbrook Archives to digitize forty years of HUB history. He introduced Head Archivist Deborah Rice, who has been busy digitizing over twenty linear feet of administrative records, student publications, photographs, motion picture film, and more, with the goal of making these materials freely accessible online. Deborah had a film on display that was recently digitized featuring Cranbrook Schools and HUB alum Sam Porter ’69, talking about his Cranbrook journey.
The event ended with an update from faculty member Chad O'Kulich on the 18th annual HUB Wilderness program, which will take place in just a few weeks, with current HUB students getting prepared for their time off campus.

An Evening of Dance Celebrates the Memory of Jessica Sinclair
Read MoreHere is the story of how the dance "Spirited" came to be, from Kay Rediers:This year's Evening of Dance celebrated the rich legacy of our dance program, featuring a special dance choreographed and danced in honor of former Director of Dance Jessica Sinclair, who passed away last spring. The dance "Spirited" was choreographed by Dance Director Kay Rediers in collaboration with her Advanced Dance students. There were also performances by three Bravo Guest Artists including Cranbrook Alumna, Lauren Roebuck '20 and Strickland Award Winner Hannah Li '24.

"The inception of "Spirited" followed a conversation with former Orchestra Director Katie Lorts, when I was struggling to find the right music for a dance class. Katie shared the music from one of Jessica Sinclair’s iconic dances, which over the years had become one of Katie’s favorite pieces. She shared memories of Jessica’s dancers in white costumes, featuring lifts and quick footwork. I instantly fell in love with the music, which is called “Song of the Spirit” by Karl Jenkins. It inspired me to choreograph a dance in honor of Jessica, including the dancers in the choreographic process. I directed the dancers to write about what “Spirit” meant to them. The dancers created movement patterns based on their writings, I stitched these patterns together with my own choreography to create a majestic whirlwind of movement named “Spirited.""
More on Lauren Roebuck's performance at An Evening of Dance 2024:Lauren Roebuck returned to the Cranbrook dance studio as a senior dance and psychology major at the University of Michigan. The current CK dancers loved her work “Dragon” which combined hip-hop and contemporary dance styles. Lauren was an amazing student during her six years in the dance program, winning the Strickland Choreography Competition as a freshman and was a runner up in her junior year here. It was such a joy to have Lauren back in the studio as a gifted choreographer, dancer, and teacher.

Ivan Krstic, Distinguished Alumnus 2024
Read MoreThere are big jobs – and then there’s Ivan Krstić’s job. Known as one of the world’s top experts in digital security, Krstić serves as head of security engineering and architecture for Apple, responsible for the end-to-end security of all Apple products. That’s more than 2.2 billion iPhones, iPads, Macs, and more, used everywhere from kindergarten classes to the halls of government.Krstić has never shied away from big ambitions and responsibilities. In fact, he landed at Apple at the age of 23 after emailing company founder Steve Jobs in the middle of the night, telling him, “I want to work on things that I can be passionate about…. I could do great things at Apple.” He received a phone call the next morning.Born in Croatia, Krstić earned a scholarship to Cranbrook at the age of 15, traveling to the U.S. on his own. His goal was to attend an elite university like Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and knew attending a school like Cranbrook could help make that happen.At Cranbrook, Krstić found teachers who were as enthusiastic about learning as he was, like chemistry teacher Ed Van Dam, who had taught graduate classes at a university, and history teacher Bob Cowie, who kept a separate apartment just to store all his books. And there was David Watson, Krstić’s faculty advisor on the Crane-Clarion newspaper, who “was always willing to look at my essays and offer suggestions, often with so much red ink that it seemed like he had written more notes than I had written text.”He adds, “Cranbrook was a deeply formative experience. I was never someone who loved studying, but I studied hard during those years because I found so many of my Cranbrook classes fascinating.”From the age of five, Krstić had been interested in computers. “I got a Commodore Amiga in 1990, and it was dazzling,” he says. When his parents got him a more serious PC computer a few years later, he discovered that while it was “useful, it wasn’t at all fun.” So he taught himself to program it, “to make this new computer do what I told it to do,” he says. “Once I figured that out, I was completely hooked.”In his first year at Harvard, Krstić continued a volunteer project for Zagreb Children’s Hospital in Croatia, creating an electronic medical record system -- a project he had started while at Cranbrook. It was an ambitious effort, but he lacked resources and support and was unable to complete the full system. “It proved too much for an 18-year-old,” he says.That work, though, inspired his next professional effort, joining One Laptop per Child, a nonprofit launched at MIT with the goal of transforming education for children around the world. “I was keenly aware that if I had not been lucky enough to get a computer when I was young, it’s extremely unlikely I would have discovered my interest in technology, or wound up at Cranbrook, or later Harvard,” he says. He wanted to give that same opportunity to children around the world.While at One Laptop per Child, Krstić developed the novel Bitfrost computer security system, earning the 21-year-old recognition from MIT Technology Review as one of the top 35 innovators in the world under 35 – its youngest ever honoree. “It was humbling and deeply, deeply meaningful,” he says. “(Receiving the award) felt like an earthquake of validation.”So, it did not seem so outrageous for the 23-year-old Krstić to send that email to Steve Jobs in the middle of the night. It turned out to be the perfect match, with Krstić creating a security system for Apple that is the envy of developers worldwide.“In computer security, you’re fighting human adversaries – they’re smart, motivated, and adaptable – so you never get to fully conquer the problem,” he says. “If you put up a fence, the attacker will bring a ladder. If you electrify the fence, they’ll wear rubber gloves…. (But) if you make it incredibly difficult and expensive to hack your system, most attackers won’t be able to turn a profit even if they break in – so they’ll move on to easier targets.”Krstić says he’s most proud of the Security Engineering and Architecture team he has built at Apple. “I believe it’s the top security engineering group in the world today,” he says. The team recruits top defensive engineers from industry and academia and pairs them with world-class hackers. “We find these people and make them a simple offer: come to Apple and do the best work of your life.”That goal of continuously improving drives Krstić. “For me, the highest aspiration of computer security is that no one has to think about it, or care, or know that it exists – that we can simply place our trust in the technology that surrounds us, and that the trust won’t be betrayed,” he says. “(Every morning), I tell myself: a better world is possible, but no one else will build it for us. And then I get to work.”

Charlene Li '84, Distinguished Alumna 2024
Read MoreCharlene Li ’84 possesses an extraordinary ability to see positive possibilities in change. It is one of the many reasons why she is considered the business world’s top expert in disruption, guiding an international roster of clients, audiences and readers through the powerful potential of embracing – and creating – change.In fact, it was a pursuit of change that brought her to Cranbrook as a sophomore in 1981. Looking for an academic and artistic challenge, she sought out the rigors of a Cranbrook education.“As a student, I always loved learning,” says Li. Under the guidance of faculty members like Arlyce Seibert and Lolly Hazard, who Li calls “wonderful teachers,” she learned to embrace that curiosity.It was Mrs. Hazard, she recalls, who taught her how to write. “I wasn’t very comfortable with words, but I loved my English classes,” she says. Another English teacher, Mrs. Fagenmeyer, gave her a copy of Strunk and White that she quickly memorized. She remembers, too, with fondness Dr. Fred Roth – “and his three pen colors for grading” – and Dr. Jeffrey Welch.At Cranbrook, Li also pursued her musical passions. “I was a competitive pianist and would spend two to three hours a day practicing,” she says. “I would go up to Heaven (at Kingswood) and practice there.”Li also showed a strong affinity for science and math, and hoped to become a doctor. Outside of class, she was an active student, joining yearbook and the school newspaper.From Cranbrook, Li went on to Harvard, with enough AP credits in hand to create her own major as a freshman: neurobiology. “I wanted to do an MD/PhD to learn about intelligence and consciousness, but the science and technology had not advanced enough to let me do that.” She shifted her focus to an honors concentration in social science.Much as she had at Cranbrook, Li took full advantage extracurricular activities at Harvard, including Model U.N. “I loved the leadership aspect of Model U.N.,” she says. “I loved creating a team, thinking about the direction of an organization, running things and starting things. That’s how I got into business.”In the late-1980s, the path to leadership roles in business was not an easy one for women. And, the fact that, as her parents put it, Li was a “short, Asian woman and everyone in business is a tall, white man” concerned her mother and father, both immigrants from China.But, Li says, she knew how to type 100 words a minute and because of that, “would always be able to find work.” That confidence was a comfort to her parents, who were deeply supportive.Li earned her MBA from Harvard Business School, graduating in 1993 just as the Internet was making itself known. “I realized it was going to change the world,” Li says. “I looked at the content online and realized that journalism was going to be the field most affected.”Running toward the unknown, she took a job at the San Jose Mercury News in Silicon Valley and worked to bring them online, one of the first newspapers to make that leap.“I’ve been running toward disruption my whole career,” Li says. “I had this confidence early on that I could do things in a different way. (As a young person), I was often the only person of color in the room. I’m very comfortable being uncomfortable.”She spent several years as a principal analyst at Forrester Research, focused on interactive advertising, search marketing and the rise of social media. In 2008, she launched Altimeter Group, to disrupt and challenge established analyst firms. After selling Altimeter, she joined PA Consulting, as chief research officer. Today, she leads Quantum Networks Group as well as a thriving career as an author, speaker and thought leader.Li has provided guidance to some of the world’s best-known companies, including Microsoft, JP Morgan Chase and IBM. A highly sought speaker, she has taken the stage at the World Economic Forum, TED and South by Southwest. She has authored six New York Times best sellers including The Disruption Mindset, Open Leadership and Groundswell. Her latest book is Winning with Generative AI: The 90-Day Blueprint for Success.Writing continues to be a passion for Li. “I hear from people who say (that something I’ve written) was transformational for them. It’s so humbling to hear that, to go to work every day and think it may help people or to know that I’ve made a difference.”To young people just starting out, Li encourages them to “get over any fear of change or failure – failure is a good thing,” she says, adding that it can be the stepping stone to success.Li continues to move forward, ushering people toward the promise of positive change. “I like to give people an ‘a-ha’ moment,” she says. “I help them break through that complexity so that they can walk out a little lighter, more confident and excited to do new things.”
