- Bio
- raised in Boston and never meant to leave. went to hahvahd and barely survived the experience, but i did have some lovely brushes with greatness there that i will never forget. i got 2/3 of an mba and mistakenly got into finance. now i'm a recovering accountant. you never really recover. thankfully fell into screenwriting by collaborating on a tv movie and selling it to nbc. wrote scripts for a while. also did some playwriting and was blessed to have my stuff workshopped with some pretty good actors. then i became agoraphobic after a hysterectomy to remove The Fibroid Tumor that Ate Santa Barbara. I adopted a 9-year-old yellow lab, Good Willa Hunting, and trained her to be my service dog. the second time around i married a wonderful and talented landscape architect/jazz flute and sax player. we moved up to portland, oregon 2 weeks after 9/11. lost thelma the love kitty on the way. lost my husband to pancreatic cancer and part of my brain to george brad pittuitary boomer tumor willis. now i live in senior low income housing
with my current service dogs/canine crew: Ella Fitzgerald and Cocoa Chanel. tumor george is gone gone gone, i'm writing again and even thinking about going back to the standup comedy open mikes. anything and everything is possible. i just have to leave the house one day at a time.
