About me

Gender Female
Industry Accounting
Occupation Certified Nurse Midwife
Location Jerusalem, Israel
Introduction I live the "average" life(whatever that is) of a married Israeli, mother of three children aged 23-27, plus Mitzi the Zionist WonderCat and Sheleg (Snowy) the Samoyed, who give a whole new meaning to "Middle Eastern conflict". I've been active in all forms and branches of maternity care for 40 years, in the US, UK, and Israel.
Interests History, Judaism, embroidery, crocheting, sewing, cooking, reading, all aspects of maternity care, just about anything that can be done without leaving the sofa.
Favorite Movies Lord of the Rings, anything with Toshiro Mifune or classic Humphrey Bogart, The Nun's Story, Peter Brooks' Mahabharata
Favorite Music Everything except jazz and the current stuff that passes for rock, partial to Baroque, classical, folk, opera
Favorite Books Everything by Dorothy Dunnett, Gaudy Night, Lord of the Rings, Paul Johnson's History of the Jews and The Birth of the Modern, Brother Cadfael, any audiobook read by Philip Madoc, Laurie King's Mary Russell series, Cryptonomicon, and about 2 zillion others--but mostly non-fiction
