James Conner '92 was a work-study student in O'Neill Library his junior year, a job that kept him close to the library's copy machine. On duty one evening, he encountered Annmarie (Wixon) Conner '92, JD'97, taking a study break. The two wound up talking for hours. A brief romance followed. They remained friends. Two years ago, the couple began dating again. On June 5, 2004, Conner, a paralegal, blindfolded Wixon, a lawyer, and before a gawking and mildly alarmed library staff led her to the copy machine where their relationship had first warmed; there he proposed. When the two were married a year later, on June 18 in St. Ignatius Church, they told their photographer there was one picture that he absolutely had to take. The library staff gawked again. The couple now live in Needham, Masachusetts.
