Maybe It's Me is a question all women have asked themselves thousands of times. But I hope my podcast will resonate with anyone of any gender, sexual preference, race, religion, or nationality who is engaged in the very human search for connection, love, acceptance, and self-respect. I will air a new podcast every other week, starting with the essays from my critically acclaimed collection Maybe It's Me, then moving on to newer musings about survival and resistance under a Trump dictatorship, how to keep learning and growing even as we age, how to unleash your own creativity in the form of the personal essay. A sometime standup comic, I will be reading my own work: imagine if David Sedaris were Jewish, straight, female, and not quite as funny.2024 Biographies & Memoirs Judaism Social Sciences Spirituality

    Bingeing on the old Mary Tyler Moore Show took me back to my own first job--like Mary, I worked in a newsroom--and led me to ponder what we've lost and gained in decreeing that any type of workplace intimacy is verboten.
