Location	Bronx, NY, United States
Introduction	Historian, arts journalist, urban studies prof, writer, hiker, swimmer -- and of course, a member of the Society of Women Who Read Too Much. Adventure and hijinks in every new moment. Always ready to raise a toast with friends to the universe and the mighty Housatonic River.
Interests	The city, its nooks and crannies and contradictions with a salsa soundtrack. The country with its rock scrambles, seductive flora, and beckoning waters. Books and poetry, a feast for the imagination, armchair travels for the soul.
