She majored in theatre at UNC-Chapel Hill and began her career and new life as an Artistic Theatre Director, then teacher of Theatre (City College of San Francisco for 33 years) and finally found her way as a successful playwright (with the support of her co-producer, Diana Brown).  Some of her proudest achievements include organizing the Impeachment March in SF two years ago, marching in the Womens March in Washington, DC in 2017, and supporting her architect husband.  As Hillary Clinton says, "Onwards!"
