Bio

Growing up, my rather Catholic family watched pre-approved tv, and movies taken from the Pope's annual list.* The radio was generally tuned to NPR or a classical station.

I still love my strings, but I've been playing pop culture catch-up ever since--and having a grand time at it.

 

*Thankfully these categories included The Cosby Show (ah, Phylicia Rashad . . .) and The Sound of Music (for Julie Andrews, of course).

Favorite Books
Too many to list (but if I had to, the list would include My Year of Meats, Breath, Eyes, Memory, Persuasion, To the Lighthouse, Vita and Virginia, Complete Poems of Elizabeth Bishop, Collected Poems of Rilke, Annie John, Death Comes for the Archbishop, The Book of Embraces, and White Teeth)
