About

20th century French literature; French theatre; European art; Francophone studies; travel; politics; classical music; Norwegian culture and literature .

My publications and most of my professional presentations were on the French-Romanian dramatist Eugène Ionesco.

I live with my husband in Atlanta. We are both retired. We travel to Europe when possible, less often in the past five years; we are members of the local museum and symphony. I studied at Western College for Women(now Miami of Ohio); University of Virginia; and Emory University. I have two sons from a first marriage (my first husband died when they were young). I have no grandchildren. I had a non-academic career for a few years and became a technical writer and trainer in a software company at that time. I later used my computer experience in designing web pages for my classes, while I was still teaching.
