- I was a seven-year-old Army brat when my family moved from the U.S. to Jakarta, Indonesia. For the next two years I noticed the stark contrast in the quality of life between the two countries. Consequently, I became a more appreciative child, adolescent and adult.
- I live in San Francisco with two adorable, albeit labor intensive, teenage sons. Our dog, Wink, is the best behaved member of our household.
- Until now, my professional pursuits have all related to children and families. No wonder I'm a Democrat.
- The outcome of the 2000 election was startling enough. By 2004 I had hoped that the American people would be begging for a change. Unadulterated fear propelled me to work on my first presidential campaign. I still recall when Averel and I made calls to unregistered housewives in the Midwest.
- Utterly discouraged with the election outcome, I chose to find a way to motivate likeminded people to stay involved so we can return the White House to the Democrats in 2008.
- Averel, Kay and Owen and I founded Blue Funk Productions and we've never looked back.
