...Claudia Mastroianni ('91-'94) joined HRSFA two episodes alter, though she is known as a "Founding Member." She graduated last year, but she still comes to weekly meeting and gets together often with HRSFA members to watch movies. She is planning to line up at 3:00 a.m. this coming weekend for 24-hour sci-fi movie marathon in Brookline.
