I am a native of Los Angeles.

I attended LAUSD public schools and UCLA and married at 19.
During my twenties my husband Richard Gunther and I had three sons. I stayed home and cared for them.

We took our first trip to Israel, Russia and Europe in 1959. We have traveled extensively since then, both as a family and just the two of us.

Having sons, I was introduced to many sports. From my 30’s to mid 80’s I snow skied. From my 40’s to late 80’s I road biked. I also played tennis. Three of our trips were high altitude treks.

From my 30’s to today I have been a community volunteer, and have found this most satisfying.  In areas of social service, the jewish community and politics. I served as the president of the board of Jewish Family Service and was a docent at the Skirball Cultural Center for 18 years.

At 92 years I still enjoy life, the friends who are still alive and particularly our wonderful family.
