| Introduction | Plus Que Jamais----longer than never--a favorite scent and a souvenir of Paris. History is like a perfume that lingers in the memory, tantalizing the senses and the imagination, an everchanging river where we discover our changing nature in unchanging humanity. A mother of two enchanting grown daughters, with two charming granddaughters, I grew up on an island that continues to influence my dreams. I am passionate about music, art, literature, French language and history, and travels to explore other people and cultures. |
| Interests | French history, language, and culture, William Morris, Pre-Raphaelites, Romantic poets, PBS mysteries, Masterpiece theater |
| Favorite Movies | Adventure/romances that take me places or times I'd like to see. Some favorites: Mask of Zorro, anything with musketeers, Room with a View, Moliere, Vatel, Count of Monte Cristo, My Father's Glory. |
