edit data

Raised in northern New Jersey (where a ninth grade English teacher called me a writer and assured me it was okay to "lie" and "exaggerate" when writing a dialogue or story), I left for two years to attend college in Tennessee. I returned to Philadelphia and the New York area, graduated from Columbia University, married, had four daughters and having always known my "destiny" began to fulfill it. After publishing a few short stories, I returned to Columbia, receiving an MFA from the School of the Arts. I also was granted a Pennsylvania Council on the Arts award, as well as other honors, and have now published numerous short stories, poetry and a novel.
