“When I was 4 ½ years old, I remember being sent to my room for a nap, but instead of resting, I practiced printing alphabet letters - all over my newly papered bedroom wall. What I most recall about that day was having to stand behind the dinette door, perched right next to my mother’s old Singer sewing machine, until I apologized for my misbehavior. I couldn’t understand why I was being punished for all my hard work, so I stood there for what seemed like hours rather than say the simple words: I’m sorry. Fortunately this inauspicious beginning didn't dull my enthusiasm for writing.

During my twenty plus years as an educator, I took an active role in this field as a frequent presenter at state and national educational conferences. Co-president of Suffolk Reading Council and subsequent Regional Director of Nassau and Suffolk LI Reading Councils, a number of my articles have been published by ERIC (U.S. Department of Education - Office of Educational Research and Improvement), parent newsletters, Newsday and the New York Times.

 

More About Lois...


As founder of a personalized book company, I authored children's books and poems that become personalized with facts and photos about each child.

After retirement from education, I continued to pursue my love for writing, and soon became co-editor of a Long Island Internet web-zine, LI EYE. As I created and authored the column Ordinary People, Extraordinary Lives, I rediscovered my special niche of investigative journalism, and put those same talents to work in my book, Sex, Lies and Cosmetic Surgery, where I was able to gain the trust of over one hundred women while interviewing them about some of the most intimate aspects of their lives.

I received a Bachelor of Science degree from Barnard College of Columbia University, where I majored in Sociology. I hold one Masters Degree in Elementary Education and a second in Reading and Special Education. I have just completed my second book, Tick, Tock, Stop the Clock. – Getting Pretty on Your Lunch Hour.

More recently, Patty Kovacs and I have joined together in an exciting endeavor as the creators/editors of a monthly Newsletter: Coast to Coast ~ Eye on Beauty, dedicated to bringing women accurate, timely information about health and beauty.
