My life in 1200 words? Can it be done? Born in Brooklyn, lived in N.J., Cranston R.I, moved to Maplewood, N.J. at 10. Graduated Columbia H.S. in 1965, Temple U. in 1969, majoring in Anthropology. Great major, but I was ready for LIFE!!! Worked as a social worker, did some drugs, lived cheap, saved money, went to Woodstock. Spent 1971 hitching around Europe and the Middle East with a backpack, doing occasional odd jobs, seeing some of the world. Meanwhile, parents sold the house and left Maplewood for a coop in Manhattan. Came back, stayed with them for a short while, moved to Brooklyn with some fellow semi-hippies. Parents got divorced. Worked at Barclays Bank. Met this really cute English guy called "Ber" whom they sent over to install the new computer program. We got together. Went to England in 1973. Married there in 1974 Still married! Came back to U.S. Lived in Boston, NYC, then Troutville VA (near Roanoke, to go "back to the land." 25 acres, raised chickens, pigs, vegetables,
