She was taking French because it was required by TWA for stewardesses who served on international flights. I met my first serious girlfriend in French Class at Northeast High School.

I hope this post brings in some of the folks who worked for TWA back in the 50s-70s here in KC - do THEY have some stories! Fun fact - the third gal from the left in the top picture looks eerily like my mom.

All stewardesses used have to be nurses as well. I know this because my grandmother wanted to become. She had the nursing degree, the looks, they just didn't like that bump in her belly that was my father. Interesting fact. All stewardesses used have to be nurses as well.

I'd love to know what caused your family to move here. You may have blogged about this before, but I'm a relatively new reader. I know you are about the age of my two children. What was it like adapting to a new country? I remember the Mickey Mouse Club doing a bit about stewardesses, and I remember thinking, “Well, I’m not pretty enough to be one of those.”
