I love this time of year, and I'm sure most New Yorkers feel as I do. Suddenly the thought of snow is stored away for another year, the freezing windy days are behind us, and spring is here.

I am partial to spring. You see I was...

When I retired, something I had never really planned on doing, I was asked over and over again by friends and family, "What are you going to do now?" I really didn't know. I had worked hard most of my adult life. I had dreams, and I also had responsibilities...

The other day I went into Manhattan to have a meeting with Commercial Agents. After I left the meeting I walked to the subway to make my way home. As I walked through the streets I mentally kicked myself for not doing this or that in the reading, but all...

I shared her passion. I was also very excited and proud to learn that the producer was a man I had first...

I was so excited the day the package arrived containing the first copies of my novel, "Both Sides of the Coin." I took the first book out of the box and held it to my breast. I couldn't believe I had actually done this. I had actually written this...
