About Me
I write because I can't imagine not writing. That's how I make sense of things, and it's also how I make my living.
Interests
- All three prongs of sustainability (environmental
- economic
- and social) Organic food growing
- bike riding (not cycling!)
- talking to people about their unique opportunities to make the most of their "once around the park
- " and reading (and writing) non-fiction.
Favorite Movies
- Do I dare admit how much I loved that Yentl movie? And early Woody Allen. But my fave movie ever is My Sweet Little Village (set in the Czech countryside in the 1980s) Has anyone else in the world seen this movie?! I saw it twice at the Paris Theater in NYC in the late 1980s and haven't stopped thinking about it since! UPDATE: My husband just got it for me on videotape and it is as terrific as I remembered it! My fave short film
- hands down
- is The Red Balloon
Favorite Music
- Ella Fitzgerald
- Nelly McKay
- my daughters on the keyboard and guitar when they don't know I'm listening
- the soundtracks from Pollack and Next Stop Wonderland
- but my fave of all is Ode to Joy
Favorite Books
