Your Favorite Piece Of Wisdom: Actually, its my mom's (she just celebrated her 97th birthday) and it has something to do with "clean underwear." Didn't your mothers tell you that too?
My Life Since Senn ...: After graduation,I attended Roosevelt University, BA, Education. Married, had two sons, divorced. Remarried, had one son, celebrating 38 years together in June. Taught school briefly in Chicago before beginning a career in non-profit work. Returned to Roosevelt for an MPA. Spent most of my career in public health as Clinic Director at the Infant Welfare Society of Chicago, later as Program Director for Gilda's Club Chicago.

My husband Bill and I traveled extensively in Mexico for many years. In 2000 we built a home in the small town of San Francisco, Nayarit (known locally as San Pancho). We live in Mexico half the year, and return to Evanston for the summer. In between, we spend time in California where our three sons live.

Our oldest son Larry is married, an Associate Professor of Aviation at Miramar College in San Diego. He and his wife Jolee, an artist, live in Encinitas.

Our middle son Steve is a writer, film producer and director in Los Angeles. He is married to Pam and has one daughter, Fiona, who is fourteen.

Our youngest son Dan, is single, is a writer (film) and lives in Los Angeles.

I work occasionally at the Public Library when we are in Evanston. I love to read and talk about books (I haven't succumbed to a Kindle). I enjoy writing, am a member of the San Pancho Writers (www.sanpanchowriters.blogspot.com) in which we blog about living in Mexico.

Living in two cultures has been a life-changing experience.

Your Favorite Piece Of Wisdom: "Think only of the past as its remembrance gives you pleasure."

Pride and Prejudice
My Life Since Senn ...: Started college at Washington University in St. Louis but transferred to Columbia University in New York City, where I completed my BS, my MBA, and met my husband Bill to whom I have been happily married for nearly forty three years. After completing my MBA, I joined General Foods (now part of Kraft in Chicago), in Market Research. When my two beautiful daughters were small, I worked doing freelance marketing assignments out of my home (no such thing as maternity leave in those days!) and then joined a small market research firm in NYC. I eventually bought that company and built it up into a rather large firm known for strategic research, consumer and business-to-business, which I sold several years ago and have been retired since that time. After many years of hard work and long hours. I am happy to relax, read and enjoy the company of our two amazing little granddaughters.

Each of our daughters built wonderful careers of their own, one as an attorney and the other in organizational training. Within the past year each of them was blessed with a baby girl of her own, so Bill and I apparently timed our retirements perfectly.

I haven't done as much traveling as I had hoped to by now, preferring usually to collapse and recuperate on a beach somewhere during the years I was working, but perhaps now that will change. I have some involvement in the contemporary art scene here in New York and am on the board of Exit Art, an important not-for-profit multi-discipline cultural center.

I will not be able to be at the reunion but I hope you all have a good time.

Your Favorite Piece Of Wisdom: Friendship is a gift you give Yourself
My Life Since Senn ...: I met three life long friends in High School and Grammar School: Myra Bleiweiss Pompiqn, Susan Pritikin Holleran and Laurel Kay Shefsky of Blessed Memory. Each of them has enriched my life.

After graduating from Senn I spent one year at the University of Wisconsin in Madison and then three years at Roosevelt University. I taught first grade at Stockton School for four years. In 1960 I met Sy Nagorsky, a 1958 graduate of Sullivan High School. We were married in 1964. He is a retired partner in a C.P.A. firm. We are celebrating our 46th Anniversary in June.

We have two children. Our son, Brian Robert, born in 1969, works in Real Estate Development and is married to Marsha, an attorney working at the University of Chicago Law School. Our daughter, Mindy Ellen, born in 1972 an attorney, is married to Ronen Israel. a principal in a Hedge Fund. We have four wonderful grandchildren: five year old Richard Joshua, "Rafi", almost three year old Samuel Avichai Nagorsky, five year old Madeline Yehudit and three year old Ariel David Israel - another baby is on the way.

In 1968 Sy and I made a life changing trip to Israel after which I became involved in the North Boundary group of Hadassah. I was president of the Chicago Chapter of Hadassah from 1992-1995 and currently serve on the National Board of Hadassah. I am also on the board of the American Zionist Movement, Chicago Region, Women's Division State of Israel Bonds and involved in other organizations.

I spend my free time traveling especially to New York where our daughter and her family live, playing Maj Jongg, babysitting, volunteering and just enjoying life.
