I am a 60-plus widow, recently retired after almost 40 years in the newspaper business. My love of politics was learned, first, from my father, a small-town Justice of the Peace for 18 years, then, my husband, a national award-winning reporter and White House Press Corps member for the Houston Post. I met and married him when he came to South Texas, having bought several small papers. Like most Deep South Texas residents, I am a lifelong Democrat, but that is not etched in stone; I am open to other party candidates if I deem them better. I am a voracious reader, love gardening and embroidering, and am also a big movie buff, since that was my father's business. Love classical and country music. My first love was James Dean, followed by Elvis Presley. I joined Propeller to learn more -- about everything. My life's motto is "A day without learning something new is a wasted day"
