Barbara's Story
Hi folks--
Grew up in Whitestone, NY. After Flushing HS, attended Transylvania College in Lexington, KY (it was just too good to pass up, being a Halloween baby), then transferred in soph year to American University in Washington, D.C. "The whole world (was) watching" up through graduation in '68, BA in Art, & graduate work. Next several years worked & lived in various parts of PA., DE., & MD. with dear man.
Moved to Rochester, NY in 1973, worked, married, built a life. Ultimately went back to school at SUNY Brockport, MS/CAS in Counseling. Became single again. Worked as Middle School Counselor, mostly in Rush-Henrietta CSD, a few years in RochCitySchDist. Loved working with the kids, lived to tell the tale & retired in '07 a...Expand for more
fter 28 years.
For the past 24 years, I've also had the privilege of portraying Susan B. Anthony on behalf of The National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House here in Rochester. As a life-long feminist, it continues to be a wonderful experience-- carrying her message in & outside of town, & to other states.
Having a wonderful time in retirement: traveling-- to parts of the world, to see family, with pals just for fun, to historic sites; doing many 'Susan sightings' all over the place; going to endless events, lectures, shows, movies... whatever. Enjoying sleeping late if I want to! Love music (Bonnie Raitt is my heroine), good food, taking photos, talking & laughing. As Miss Anthony would say, "Failure Is Impossible!" :-)
