On the personal side, Linda loves to learn and never tires of listening to one of the over 9,000 educational audios she has amassed or reading one of the hundreds of books that fill her home. She loves to travel and has visited more than 30 countries. Linda also enjoys movies, theater, exercise (most days!), the beach, exploring her home town of New York City and engaging in good conversation. She is happily married to her long time husband Jim, and is proud mom to her son, Michael, who is a working actor in New York. A highlight of her personal life was being an “extra,” along with Michael, in the remake of the film The Manchurian Candidate. If you blink, you will miss Michael. Alas, Linda never made the final cut.
