My training and interests led to developing domestic and international health programs and projects. I enjoyed working with several government agencies including the National Cancer Institute, NIH, from which I retired.

Dhaka, Bangladesh; Jakarta, Indonesia; Minsk, Belarus; and Astana, Kazakhstan. I'm currently living in Northern Virginia with my husband.

All my family's children attended South Pasadena schools at one time or another:

Elizabeth (Betsy) Mann
Kimberly (Kim) Mann
Tony Mann
Anna Mann
Edward (Eddy) Mann
John Mann

With so many good books and movies available, it is hard to choose. I'm reading a lot more nonfiction these days, especially history and current affairs. It is nearly impossible to live in the DC area and not follow politics.

At the moment (3/28/16), I am busy downsizing, packing, and getting the house ready to sell. We are going to move to New York City (Brooklyn) for a year. Two of our children currently live there with our grandson. Afterwards, we plan to return to Northern Virginia to join our eldest daughter's household in Arlington. Laura has designed a special unit attached to the back of her house for us to live. This will be a "grand experiment" in multifamily living!

I am grateful to South Pasadena's schools and community for helping me along by supporting my interests and providing a safe place to grow.
