Congratulations to Natasha Goldberg for being elected Secretary on the HVLA board. She is joining us as Elaine Levia steps down. Thank you to Elaine for her service. We wish her all the best! And thank you to Zoey Ha and Sarah Sculnick for their desire to serve and give back to the HVLA community.
Natasha served on the HVLA board in the past several times in different capacities. I had the pleasure of working with her in 2009 when I was serving as one of the co-vice presidents. This was when I was just entering the world of independent schools. She was kind and funny and extremely knowledgeable and we discovered we have a shared love of music. Here is Natasha’s biography, but be sure to ask her about her background as a classical pianist. And ask her about her cute dog Oscar!
Natasha’s biography:
Natasha Goldberg is a trusted confidante, cheerleader, and advisor to Chapin students, teachers, and parents. Her history with The Annenberg Center for Learning and Research goes back over 15 years, when she swooned over an online picture of the library’s circular windows via a NYT job posting. A graduate of Columbia College of Columbia University, as well as the Palmer School of Information Science, Ms. Goldberg’s collaborations have included working on the newly-formed Sora/Overdrive Consortium Committee of NYC independent schools, as well as numerous board positions at HVLA. Originally a software developer, Natasha began her library career at the Brooklyn Heights branch of BPL as a Juvenile Specialist. She then landed her dream job working with grades 4-7 as the Middle School Librarian at The Chapin School. A lifelong learner, Natasha studies drawing and painting at Art Students League. When she’s not collaborating with colleagues and students, she can be found at any piano taking requests.
