Cheryl's Story
Life
After graduating from CRSH in 1975 I attended the University of Minnesota as an undergraduate and then for law school. I puttered around for a few years, then moved to Southern California. I practice entertainment law at a small law "boutique" firm in Los Angeles, representing primarily producers, production companies and studios. I'm tired of working long, hard, stressful hours, dealing with demanding, egotistical personalities. Frankly, I can't wait until I can retire and have a little peace and quiet! I'm giving serious thought to going back to graduate school in the next couple of years, getting my PhD and teaching at the University level. Ah, think of all of the time off!

I've been all over Europe and have seen a good chunk of South America. For something different, on my 50th (OUCH!) birthday, I went to Tanzania for a photographic safari. In 2008 my boyfriend, Scott and I went to China. In 2009, we went to Egypt and then took his 18 year old son to Costa Rica. This year, in May, we are going to Thailand and Cambodia. I can't wait to see what other adventures the coming year will bring.
When I'm not traveling, there's nothing I like better than curling up on the sofa and watching an old movie. I appear to have become anti-social in my relatively old age.
Geez, this all sounds so freaking pretentious as I go back and read it. But it's my life.
