I am a grandmother of 5 who founded Grandmothers Against the War 5 years ago. Among our many activities, we were arrested and jailed when we tried to enlist at the Times Square recruiting center, in Oct., 2005. We've traveled to Europe and to Washington to press our case. We hold vigils, demonstrations, protests, all sorts of actions, and do shows written mostly by me. I am an ASCAP lyricist and composer with a long career as a singer in cabarets, recording studios, movie sound tracks, and on records. I have written at least a thousand jingles, songs, film songs, cabaret acts, and 8 musicals, 5 of which were produced off- and off-off Broadway. My first book was published on April 29 by Citadel Press, entitled "Grandmothers Against the War: Getting off Our Fannies and Standing up for Peace."
