I live in Portland, OR and work in the consumer experience arena (mainly online) in the healthcare industry. This is my second Reading Odyssey - the first was The Odyssey. I've always wanted to read more of the classics and this is a great way motivate myself to do so and to get insight from others doing the same thing. </DIV>

I teach high school Latin language and literature at the Hockaday School in Dallas. When I am not reading Roman or Greek literature, I love to ride bikes with my family, go camping/hiking, and play games (especially chess). Newest hobby: watching Jupiter these last few weeks through a telescope.</FONT></DIV></DIV></DIV></div><br>
