Of course, this is a woman who feels at home in classrooms. She's earned more degrees than you can count on one hand (including her most recent, a Ph.D. in English from U.C. Berkeley, when she was 73) and enjoyed a teaching career that spans six decades, including 38 years as an award-winning English teacher with the San Francisco Unified School District, at Lowell and Lincoln high schools.

She's seen quite a bit. There were the years she taught at the California School for the Deaf in Fremont. "Oh, yes, I was there when Helen Keller came to dedicate the building [in 1950]," she mentions casually. She taught at Cal throughout the anti-war and free speech movements. "Mario Savio was a very good, very humble man," she says wistfully just someone remembering an old friend.
