Bookworm

Shalom!

I was born in California [USA] and grew up in Hollywood until the mid-1960's when I moved to Israel: I speak, read and write English and Hebrew with a smattering of Spanish and French, and a toothpick of Latin.

My formal education amounts to 4 years - but I am also an autodidact and bookworm with catholic tastes. I worked mainly in tourism for over 25 years before becoming executive secretary to an FDA consultancy, then 'retired' (!) into marriage. Widowed in 2008, I went back to work part-time in 2010 and finally retired in 2017.

My name means “Song of God” in Hebrew.

I joined Wikipedia to broaden my horizons, discover new interests and enjoy contributing to something so worthwhile.

Cheers!
