Going back over forty years would take a bit of doing. I've been a local Phila. performer in numerous area clubs and churches. I've been fortunate enough to work with some of the best in the business; predominantly in jazz. My nickname is Jazz and I was on here, in a regular site. I'd like to be the supporter of the up and coming artists; I've had my time in the spotlight, but still like to steal it when I can. I'm perhaps the most proud of my professional album, "Generations of Love". I've had the pleasure of working with Richard Bredice, Karen Hammack, Jack Prather, Paul Kreibach and too many to mention. I studied the flute since the age of eight, performing as solo chair with several bands and orchestras.

Published writer and poet who has dedicated her life to the well being of children;

I’m a retired Special Education teacher who can't seem to retire.

I'm a strong, independent woman who taught elementary education and then Special Education.

My work was at the secondary level with Emotionally Disturbed Teens.

I hold graduate degrees in psychology and one in special education.

My private life is busy with family and friends. I'm a very proud parent.

My travels have been extensive taking me through Europe,

the United States including Hawaii, Australia and Figi.

The theater in London is wonderful, Spain and the Costa del Sol were amazing

, but I'm in love with Italy and Southern California.

Every chance I get I'll go to New York City for the feeling of excitement

you get nowhere else in the world. The theater district is my favorite place to roam; never a dull moment.

When forced to retire due to fibromyalgia, it was impossible. Soon I was

writing whenever possible. I’ve been published; have a Myspace

musician’s site, Facebook Site called Jazzy Suzy, Youtube channel,

Soundclick Site and this site. I was a member of American Zoetrope and Editred.

I’ve also edited two books and can be googled; finding a long list of credits to my name.

I helped in editing LUMEN by Gloria Slater which you can find on Amazon.

My music can be downloaded at Soundclick where I have been a top charter since I joined.
