I also worked for ABC News and for Citibank, all in New York City. During that time, I wrote for general interest magazines and professional journals, did book and movie reviews, features, and edited newsletters . I moved to Florida in 1997 and have freelanced at the University of Miami and Barry University and have also done research for a variety of private clients, companies, individuals, and e-commerce groups. In the early 1990s I began to write fiction, and was published in a number of little magazines and national newspapers. My first novel was published in 2000, followed by a second and a third, in 2002 and 2004. The second novel received an award from Booklist magazine as a Top Ten Novel of2002. I also had stories in anthologies. In 2005, Simon & Schuster published my first attempt at non-fiction, My Lady Scandalous, the biography of Grace Dalrymple Elliott, a celebrated 18 1h century courtesan and memoirist. I write freelance articles for magazines on a variety of subjects (the latest was a travel- cultural piece in the November 2008 issue of Bonita Living) and give lectures (some gratis, others fee-based) for organizations such as the Bass Museum, the Miami Beach Regional Library, and private groups, including homeowner associations (1500 Ocean Drive), charities (JAFCO/Jewish Adoption and Foster Care Options), and professional groups (South Florida Writers). 38 I have always taken an interest in my community and have been a successful advocate for historic neighborhoods. In St. George, Staten Island, I formed a group that fought against the incursion of an unsuitable high-rise office building in a predominantly residential pre- Civil War neighborhood of single-family homes and small apartment buildings. I have been involved with parent-teacher groups and professional organizations throughout my life and served in various offices in these associations. Living in an historic neighborhood on South Beach, in The Drake, a Contributing Art Deco Building, has been a privilege. Our buildings are the reason tourists and visitors flock to the beach. We are the real thing! I have been condo board president of The Drake for almost five years and active in the Miami Beach community, giving testimony at the Historical Preservation Board, the Zoning Board, the Planning Board, the Beach Preservation Committee, the Transportation & Parking Committee and at meetings of the City Commission. I fought hard to keep the Electrowave a city-run entity. I gathered parking usage statistics for Zone Five that proved on-street parking in the historic neighborhood was necessary and of great importance to residents. Aligned against us were businesses \vith access to garage space who nonetheless demand multiple valet spaces to conduct their operations . I am not anti-business, not by any means, but I believe in researching the facts in order to come to a fair solution to issues. I see myself as a mediator and problem-solver. I do not rely on empty allegations or hyperbole to prove a pojnt or to sway public officials. I do believe that citizens have a right to be heard and I'm a good listener and communicator who's sincerely dedicated to historical preservation and am an enthusiastic member of the Miami Design Preservation League. To sum up , I believe that I have the qualifications: the energy, the intelligence, and the will, to serve on Miami Beach boards and committees, including the Historic Preservation Board. I have now put in two years on the Transportation & Parking Committee and was influential in stopping a public works project -the widening of 23rd Street-that would have cost taxpayers $5 million dollars. I sincerely believe in the message of historic preservation-the fight is not over-to identify and preserve our Art Deco heritage for future generations. Ours is a Contributing Art Deco Building on Ocean Drive and I know that this is one of the major attractions for tourists who come to our area, along with nightlife, good restaurants and beaches. It is not a poor second in terms of attractions, but rather uppermost in the hierarchy of what makes Miami Beach such a fabulous community in which to live and work. It would be an honor to serve on the Historic Preservation Board, especially after two full and active years as a working member-with an excellent attendance record--of the Transportation & Parking Committee.
