A to Z Challenge


Like many of you, I've got a checkered past. Born in England in the '50s, my parents wandering ways meant we spent a few years in Tripoli and Turkey prior to coming to North America in the early 1960s. I came of age in Canada with the British Invasion before we took a detour to Puerto Rico and finally landed in L.A. I've been a writer, a realtor, a media buyer, a copywriter, a Universal Studios tour guide, a substitute teacher, a film & television production coordinator and more. I've worked with stars like Brad Pitt, Bill Pullman, and Elizabeth McGovern and I've worked with special needs kids who made me feel like I was the real superstar. In this year's AtoZ Challenge I've shared a handful of those stories. Sharing my life's stories, just trying to get it all down before I'm too old to remember, that's the whole point of this blog.
