I returned to NYC to marry and worked at Crain's NY Business as a senior copy editor; later a press secrectary for a U.S. Congressman and for a NY City Comptroller. Dave, Sara and I live in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Sara is a sophmore at Smith College (Sorry, we tried). Spelman didn't have lacrosse. My new project is to learn to play golf.
