About Me

My parents voted for McGovern in 1972.

I applied to the CIA in 1984.

I always split my ticket.

I've written for the Wall Street Journal, the Philadelphia Inquirer, MIT Press and have syndicated columns to Reuters and the Chicago Sun Times.

My interest in women in politics began when I read about Eleanor of Aquitaine who, in the 12th century, ruled both England and France--and launched a full scale war against her husband when she caught him cheating on her.

IMO, no one has bested that record yet.
