About Me:
Former newspaper reporter--worked for the Palo Alto Weekly from its first issue--librarian since 1987, but left the library circuit to work for this start-up in downtown Seattle, called Amazon.com. Worked there for 6.25 years. Love the publishing community, love talking about what the Internet is doing to change social norms and the role of libraries. Have two wonderful kids and a fabulous partner.

Testimonials and Comments for Cindy
She has two beautiful children who clearly got her incredible looks. They are also gifted, warm, appreciative people, who collect friends like stamps, and like Cindy, are cognizant of the world around them. They are artistic and intelligent, expressive and well-balanced.
There are few like Cindy, and if you're her friend, you should be thankful and consider yourself fortunate. By the way, she never forgets a birthday.
This testimony is the short version.
