About Me:

I am not a widow. I am writing as the daughter of a widow and the daughter-in-law of a widow. Their experiences as well as experiences of several widowed Jewish friends led me to write my new novel, Life, Death, and Doughnuts, about a group of 4 Jewish women and their 50 year friendship. The book begins in 1944 and ends in 1994 when three of the four women have become widowed. It is a funny, but poignant look at widowhood and recently sold out at the Jewish Book Festival in NY. I'd like to suggest it to your members. I also make personal appearances.
