A graduate of St. John’s University (BA) and Vassar College (MA).   She is retired from teaching in Bennett College and Dutchess Community College.  She has twice won the Talespinner Competition sponsored by the Poughkeepsie Journal.   One of the judges, Michael Korda, commented:  “Has a very strong cultural appeal, and gives the reader a quick, instant understanding of Chinese values, and how they differ from our own.  As well, it is simply written, perhaps the best written of all the stories here.”


Her short stories and essays have appeared in Prima Materia, Short Story International, CAAC Inflight magazine, Westchester Family, Dutchess Magazine, The Country, and Dutchess Mature Life.  Andover Green published one of her children’s stories in Six Inches to England: An Anthology of International Children Stories.
