Born in Chicago which is my home.  Attended the University of Chicago.  Have a BS in Speech and an MA IN Theater from Northwestern University.  Married with two sons, no grandchildren--they're not married.

My writing career began in l972 with a prize winning article in the now defunct Chicago Daily News.  It has continued with another prize winner and articles in other Chicago newspapers and national magazines including an article in the magazine Aviation History about my husband's WWII service in the 34th Photo Reconnaissance Squadron of the Army Air Force.

My present book published by Friesen Press is Honeymoon Hotels.  It is a collection of vignettes telling of Roy and my adventures, which included meeting Daniel Day-Lewis and his grandfather, Sir Michael Balcon, the producer of the Alec Guinness movies, as well as humorous incidents, sex, and concidences during our honeymoon over 50 years ago on our European honeymoon travels,
