The assembled professors loved it. she and a colleague encountered such merciless teasing that they Recently, however, she reaped a notable reward for her attendance at therapy sessions. On returning from a two-week conference in Washington, she reported triumphantly that "nobody asked me if I was from New York." Mandrell might make on her Eastern long-distance callers.
