Her work has appeared in the New York Times “Disunion” blog, Energy Times, The Sun Magazine, The Record of Bergen County, NJ, Woodstock Times, Phoenicia Times, Chronogram, Upstate House Magazine, Aikido Today, and many other periodicals. Her interest in spiritual practice has led her to explore Buddhism, yoga, Wicca, Native American traditions, Christian Science, and West African ancestor practices. She has traveled extensively in India, Europe, and the Middle East, including a stint teaching English in Tehran in 1976. She is currently writing a mystery novel about New Jersey real estate, as well as a book about her quest to make friends with her ancestors, such as the writer of a Civil War diary.
