A transplant from New York, I have been living in the Los Angeles area long enough to have witnessed two major earthquakes, one pandemic and 7 grandchildren. I was employed as a Speech and Language therapist for the schools and hospitals and my poetry writing has been ongoing most of my life. I have performed in local community theaters, several TV shows and had a chance to do some standup comedy along the way. I have written several screenplays, short stories and now a book of poetry (yet to be published). I am very excited to have the opportunity to share my poetry with everyone.
