Dorothy Pauletti

Many in the Gale community remember Dorothy Pauletti as a professional pianist, composer, and performer. She performs professionally under the name of Dorothy Olson and has been performing her entire life.  Mrs. Pauletti taught piano to many Gale students over the years (including your webmaster Miles). She has played at many Gale assemblies and she helped produce the 8th grade talent shows in the 1970s. Her two children, Susan and Peter, are also Gale graduates. Mrs. Pauletti recently celebrated her 90th birthday. Although she is now legally blind, Mrs. Pauletti still plays professionally and was recently featured in an ABC news story.  (see video above)
