My Favorite Movie

The Color Purple, The Way We Were, A Perfect Mind, and many more.



My Favorite Music

I can't think of anything I don't like. OK, maybe a lot of Country.



My Favorite Books

........................

"One of Our Own" and any other writing of Willa Cather, "The Bluest Eye" and "Beloved" by Toni Morrison, mysteries, and horror. Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn, is a thought-provoking study of our purpose. I am intrigued by the human understanding of Dostoievsky.  I Love the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Biography
I grew up in Butte, Montana, but have lived in Nevada for a very long time. I received my undergraduate and graduate degrees in journalism from the University of Nevada, Reno and my secondary certification to teach journalism and English from Sierra Nevada College. I have a long history in newspapers and was editor of the Nevada Appeal and the Daily Democrat, a newspaper in Woodland, California. I love Politics. I ran for mayor of Carson City. My husband is an almost native Carson City guy who graduated from CHS. I have two wonderful children, Jessie and Johanna, two step-children, and three grandchildren, the youngest who was born in June in New York City.
