About Me:
I would rather write than sleep. Although my work at a
university has introduced me to interesting characters and
nourished my brain, writing short fiction and essays is
what fulfills me, and that usually has to wait until I
close the door on my day job. I love to sing, read (and be
read to), and listen to many very different types of music.
(Stravinsky, Poulenc and Brahms were on my parents' weekend
play list when I was growing up; so were the Weavers, Joan
Baez, Pete Seeger, the Beatles. Gilbert & Sullivan, Les
Yeux Noirs, Chava Alberstein, the Klezmatics, Train, Neil
Finn, and Annie Lennox are the people I'm listening to
now.) I admire physical grace, which is one of the reasons
I'm learning to belly dance and enjoy watching it, too.
I've never been interested in playing sports, but I
wouldn't mind understanding them. My politics lean gently
to the left. I feel strongly about fairness, particularly
for children, the working poor, and the elderly--the people
most politicians talk about and do nothing for.

Who I Want to Meet:
A genuine, articulate, warm, affectionate, literate guy
who's willing to slow-dance (not a euphemism) in the living
room and doesn't play every sport in creation.
