Jeanette is a graduate from UCLA with a major in music and a minor in English. She goes to work at Garfield High School in East Los Angeles. Garfield later becomes world famous for its math teacher, Jaime Escalante and the movie "Stand and Deliver." While working for the Los Angeles Unified School District she begins a double life that includes meeting and associating with some of the most famous musicians of the era: Jim Morrison, the Rolling Stones, P.J. Proby and James Brown, plus the Dave Clark Five, the Hollies, Keith Relf and others. These form just a part of the memoir that Jeanette shares as her life unfolds as both a teacher and a rock and roll junkie. Jeanette works at Garfield High School during the radical "sixties," and the nation is at a boiling point with student protests, anti-war demonstrations; rebellion is the name of the game. Later she transfers to Venice High School on the Westside. The year is 1968 with demographic changes affecting the very fiber of education. Students now are challenging all authority while education is turned topsy-turvey. The heart of this book is that teaching is an art, but she expresses continuing concerns about the realities within the classroom as well as the difficulties now faced in education. Teachers need administrative support, along with the ongoing understanding of the difficulties so frequently experienced within the classroom.
