Favorite teacher? I had a few - but Professor Reiss, English Teacher at SMC, pushed me to pursue my love of literature.  He was witty, passionate, and he cared.  We kept in touch after my graduation for many years before he died, suddenly.  He is still my inspiration.

Do you have pets? Not anymore - but I loved my dogs!
Favorite color? Green
Favorite quote or saying? Life to Literature, Literature to Life!
Where is the farthest place you have ever traveled? I lived in Germany for three years.
Favorite Food? Turkey Burger
Hobbies or Activities/Organizations you are active in? I wrote poetry and have since elementary school.  Love gardening, hiking in the woods, kayaking and baking.  I enter 5k races with the goal to finish.  What I enjoy the most is spending time with my family, grandkids and friends.  It doesn't get better than that.
