About Me

You will also find me listed on many other "filmmaking" sites. I was born in Brooklyn, New York in the 1950s, I am of Portuguese & Native American descent, and a descendant of Chief Powhatan. I have lived here in Arizona since the Summer 1970...ah, what a year! I Lived in New Jersey in the 60s and lived in California for a while in the late 70s. What can I say? I'm a hell of a goofy gal with a "Peter Pan" complex. I'll never grow up...(hehehe), and you can't make me! My favorite quote is (aside from the one listed by my photo): "I just don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die." -Mr. Garrison (South Park) It's a female thing.
