Contest #1
Uncle Albert Was A Civil War
Hero Who Liked Bicycles
I was the first female editor-in-chief of The Exonian, the student newspaper of Phillips Exeter Academy.
I met my husband, Fen, when the two of us worked together at The Times-Picayune/The States Item in New Orleans.
Fen gets out a lot, to fly fish in the back reaches of Russia, research the impact of global warming on penguins in Antarctica, and other common outdoor activities. I've stayed closer to home, raising our two daughters, Claire and Nuni (Eugenie).
My mom is the niece of Colonel Albert Augustus Pope, for whom Pope Park in Hartford, Connecticut is named. Uncle Albert was a bicycle magnet and Civil War hero who traced his roots to the well-known New England families of Pope, Pierce, Cole, Stubbs and Neale.
My paternal grandfather, Mortimer, was a prominent New York trial lawyer and founder of a firm that bore his name. He was also a painter of some renown.
As for me, I spent 23 years working in a wide variety of positions for The Wall Street Journal. In fact, when I left earlier this year I was a top, if not the top, female editor at the paper.
I'm now in charge of corporate news for Bloomberg News.
