I was born in Brooklyn, lived in a Jewish neighborhood and assumed the whole world was Jewish until I went to college at the University of California at Berkeley. Returning to NY after college, I taught sociology at Brooklyn College for 40 years and wrote a book about taking care of elderly parents largely based on my own experience.
