Born in beautiful Verona, Italy. Worked at the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, married and came to NYC. 50 years ago I chose to become a proud American citizen. I believe our forefathers wrote the constitution to prevent a ruling "KING".

In the "personal news" department, this morning I let my colleagues know that I'm leaving The Washington Post. I'm retiring from my longtime journalistic home but not from journalism, and I'll keep you posted as I decide what my next chapter will be.

When I first ran for Congress, my opponent said I could be a mom or serve my community, but not both. I proved them wrong. Now, Speaker Johnson made the same anti-family claim. America is stronger when we support working parents - Democrats always will. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
