I grew up in Woodland Hills, CA, and lived most of my life in the Los Angeles area. Along the way, I earned a BA in Theater from UCLA, married actor Loren Lester, raised our 3 actress daughters, Julia, Lily, and Jenny, and worked in TV, Film, and Theatre. I also created 2 successful businesses: Art Plates – sold in 2006, and EasyLunchboxes® (an Amazon #1 best-seller) which was acquired in 2019.

When our girls grew up and moved out, we did too. Loren and I now live in NYC on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
