Description

I began my writing career at Niles North High School in Skokie, Illinois, where I won a national feature writing award from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. I joined the second class of women to graduate from Yale University (1974). Everyone else in my class went to law school or business school, but I wanted to go to Columbia for a degree in journalism. I had one problem, though. The year I applied (1974), Woodward and Bernstein had just brought down a President. Investigative reporter had become the chichest profession in America. I was accepted despite the largest applicant pool in the school's history and graduated in 1975.

I remained in New York City and joined the international reporting staff at the United Nations. In 1978, I was sent to Dallas by a computer. Actually, my now ex-husband, the cardiologist, was sent by a computer to Texas and I went, too. I joined the Dallas Times Herald (God rest its soul) and soon became its food editor. In 1981 I joined D magazine (the city magazine) as its business editor. I continued to review restaurants for the magazine.

In 1989, the real estate depression hit Texas. I got laid off. So I became a literary mercenary. I formed The Writers' Block, a Texas free-lance writers' syndicate. My articles have appeared in Playboy, the New York Times Sunday Magazine, Banker's Monthly, Sky (Delta's in flight magazine),and the Miami Herald Travel section, among others.
