Bio

I was born and raised in the apple country of the Hudson Valley in New York state. My father was a successful, self-employed land surveyor; my mother was the Purchasing Agent at SUNY New Paltz and, upon her retirement, was replaced by 3 men!! I was the youngest of 4 kids. My Norwegian grandfather greatly influenced my life.
I graduated with a BA in German Literature from Boston University in 1969, lived and worked in Hamburg, Germany for a year afterward. I've always been interested in languages, but am not really fluent in any other besides English and German, but I am familiar with some romance and Scandinavian languages.
I am married, have 1 son and 2 grandchildren. I travel often to Europe, now for business, but for more than 50 years have touched down someplace in Europe at least once a year.
Classical music is very important to me; I play the piano for enjoyment and each year host the musicians of the Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival. That's a treat.
