As you requested Bill (repeatedly![Description: C:\Users\Linda Norris\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\I3R6EUL2\MC900434743[1].png](DeborahGuidness_files/image002.png)
) here is some bio info.
After high school, I attended Georgetown
University's School of Foreign Service, graduating in 1976. At GU, I met Mark
Meyer while playing in a contract bridge tournament. As I graduated, I passed
the Foreign Service exams, but decided to attend MIT and get a Master's degree
in Finance instead. But the more important decision I made was to marry Mark in
1979. Since then, Mark and I have lived in Michigan -- where we had season
tickets to U of M football games for a few years.
In the mid-1980's, we
moved to Hoboken, NJ where we eventually bought a 100+ year old
brownstone. Over the past 20 years, we were blessed with
three children -- and along the way renovated our brownstone. We have learned a
lot about educating children in a challenging urban location, while both
working full time. The children have now grown up, finished college, and all happen
to work in Texas.
I still work in finance in mid-town Manhattan and
hope to do so for a few more years. May 2012 we all visited Norway.
