I am, first of all a woman of a certain age with fine children, extraordinary grandchildren, and, I am happy to report, a bright and beautiful great granddaughter.
Ever so quickly I’ll add…I have been a theater manager and presenter of national and international dance, theater, and music; a director of arts programming for artists with developmental disabilities; a social worker and therapist, and, back in the day, a minor political staffer/activist.
Who I have always been (from age two or so but that’s another story), and continue to be, is a traveler, reader, and writer. Please check out Window Seat: The Story of a Traveling Life, a memoir (Archway Publishing, Amazon, Barnes & Noble).
My home of homes, where I grew up and best understand who I am, is Northome, Minnesota. For much of my life however, I’ve been based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the place which has entertained and sustained me for the long haul.
It’s 2026. I want my blog to reflect my life now, heading toward the finish line… with time to ponder decades past and the strangeness of the present. So many topics to explore here in Time and Place.
