Hometown

New Jersey

Paris, London, Rome, Mexico, Canada, Hawaii and Puerto Rico and most of the Caribbean Islands. Lived in LA, San Francisco, DC, and NYC.

More about me

I am a writer, I teach writing workshops, and I do a weekly radio broadcast about adoption issues. I live in a great little city, Providence, Rhode Island, but I am originally a Jersey girl. I read a lot, love indie movies and live theater, and there is a lot of great rep companies in Providence. My dream life would be to divide my time between NYC, Providence and Barbados. I remember my dear Nana, who at the age I am now, God love her, put her gray hair in a hairnet and wore no makeup, long dresses and orthopedic shoes. Haven't we come a long way, ladies?

Activities

reading, writing, sun worshipping, if that can be considered an activity!

Favorite Charities

when my husband left me with ZIP, I wished somebody would make ME their favorite charity. But seriously, any organization that protects children.

Vintage Eagles, Christina Aguilera, Pussycat Dolls and Black eyed Peas.

Favorite TV Shows

The Colbert Report, the Daily Show, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Lost, the History Channel, and of course, since I once was one myself: Desperate Housewives.
