"Suzuki Roshi had a student who lived in Northampton, Massachusetts. This was Dorothy Schalk, the founder of the Northampton Zen Center. Mrs. Schalk had studied Zen in Japan with Ruth Fuller Sasaki, and after her sojourn in Japan she went to San Francisco to meet with Suzuki Roshi, at that time one of the few Japanese roshis living in the U.S. He agreed to be her teacher, and she returned home to Northampton to found a small Zen meditation group that met at her house on Lyman Road." - read the whole letter from Gerald W.
