But we had a very good boss, and he treated us just like everybody else.  (Mildred S Dresselhaus Quotes) My older brother was a musical prodigy, and he got a scholarship to the Bronx House Music School. We moved to the Bronx when I was 4 to be close to his music school. Then I got a music scholarship myself, at the age of 6, but that was for a school down in Greenwich Village. I had to take the elevated train and then the subway to get there.  (Mildred S Dresselhaus Quotes)
