Born, raised and educated in Trenton, NJ, one of 7 children from a family of
Italian-American heritage. Received BA in English in 1976 with a minor in Spanish. Worked as a Librarian before becoming a County Social Worker.
Married in 1983, raised one daughter who has given us two beautiful grandchildren. Have performed in local musical groups, and enjoy concerts, literature, sports, particularly baseball, and am politically active. I am most proud of my nearly 33 year relationship with George who has continually encouraged my writing. It's both relaxing and challenging to express my feelings and 'paint pictures' of the world around us through words. Am currently residing in Hamilton Twp., a suburb of Trenton, and with my husband, am now retired. Thank you for this opportunity to join your poetry group !
