I enjoy different types of television shows. My favorite daytime drama is General Hospital, which I've been watching since 1979. My favorite movie of all time is the television miniseries North and South starring Patrick Swayze and James Read. I love historical novels. John Jakes and Winston Graham are my favorites. I was pleased when Graham's Poldark was revived as a new series on Masterpiece though the original starring Robin Ellis holds a special place in my heart. I also love classic Hollywood movies of the 1930s and 40s. When I'm not watching tv, reading, writing and working at my job in clinical trials, I enjoy spending time with my twin sister Tracy.
