Suzanne Hackett

Age: 40 (Dear God, how did this happen?)

Born: Burbank, CA
Moved to Bellingham, WA for college, then Missoula, MT for grad school.
Lived and worked in Helena, MT; Miles City, MT; Napa, CA;
Las Vegas, NV and now back in LA.  (How did that happen?)

Married: Yes (second time around) for two years, to the love of my ife,
Charles

Children: Son, Isaac, 12--an actor
          Son-in-the-oven, as yet to be named (I know how this happened)
          Hollywood stray dog, Cybil Shepard, 5 years old--forever

Work: Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations at Cal State
University, Northridge--i.e. I raise money.
Been working in the museum field in similar capacity for past 15 years,
mostly in science centers.

I also have a consulting business where I do this kind of work for
non-profit arts and education oranizations, http://www.fundraiserx.com

Hobby: Artist (painting and printmaking), have a self-published xine called
"Your Attention, Please" http://home.earthlink.net/~yetilvft
and run a non-profit sculpture park near the ghost town of Rhyolite, Nevada,
called the Goldwell Open Air Museum http://www.fundraiserx.com/goldwell.html

VW's: Current owner of "Geordi" (as in La Forge), a 1990 Vanagaon Carat,
with the Weekender Package.  Have 190,000+ miles on original engine, but
have rebuilt most of the other major systems.  I have a GREAT mechanic most
of the time.

Had a 1973 bus whose engine threw a rod on its first road trip (I didn't
appreciate what that little green light meant at the time) and stranded me
with a bunch of hillbillies in Weiser, Idaho for four days (like 16 years
ago).

Had a 1971 Bug before that that first my sister crashed, then I did.  Duh.
Us So. Cal gals didn't know much about driving on ice at the time.  Eight
years in Motana fixed that.

Favorite town: Rhyolite, Nevada, of course.  Check it out at
http://www.rhyolitesite.com and join us next April for the three day
Rhyolite Jamboree!

Wow...anything else?
