| Introduction | I've been traveling the world lately, and I've seen the luxuries and the miseries it offers. I'm continuing my inborn quest for knowledge and insight---when I'm not parenting, or in my case, especially when I'm parenting! If you've read my book A Real Boy: A True Story of Autism, Early Intervention and Recovery (published by Berkley/Penguin), you'll know what I mean. With great struggle comes a little bit of great wisdom if we're lucky. |
| Interests | Writing, reading, fashion, jewelry, autism spectrum, parenting, marriage, romance, travel, various religions, activism, health, nutrition, science, music, and just about anything relevant to the process of living well on this earth. |
| Favorite movies | Swept Away (the Lina Vertmuller version), Pink Floyd's The Wall, I Am Sam, Gone With The Wind, Casino, The Best Years of Our Lives, and my fiance tells me to add Fight Club. |
| Favorite music | Van Morrison, rap, hip-hop, Tupac, fifties, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Mozart, string quartets, Indian dance, bluegrass, Schubert, zydeco, Rush, Alicia Keys, Buddy Guy, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa (opera), gospel choirs |
| Favorite books | Rebecca, Of Human Bondage, The Strange One, A Distant Trumpet, The Great Man, We Need To Talk About Kevin, Working, Cakes and Ale, The Razor's Edge, Black Boy, Tobacco Road, The Waterbabies, Peter and Wendy, The Big Golden Book of Elves and Fairies, Huckleberry Finn, Drinking A Love Story, All Over But The Shoutin', too many to list |
Your superpower is that you smell like dandelions whenever someone lies. How will you maintain your secret identity?
Drench myself in Chamade by Guerlain so they wouldn't notice.
