User:Carlianschwartz

I'm Carlianschwartz. I live in Paterson, New Jersey, and winter in Delray Beach, Florida. I've traveled abroad extensively. I have a bachelor's degree in German literature and psychology, a master's degree in German literature, and a law degree. I've practiced admiralty law since 1979 and have been licensed in New York and New Jersey, although I've recently semi-retired from it (at age 63, it's time to throttle down and tend to family). I'm overeducated, over-read, and, according to my spouse, my memory does not have an "erase" button. As I jest with others, I have a huge memory and an older microprocessor--sometimes it takes longer to remember than I'd wish!

My interests are photography, cooking, classical music, and film, but they're not written in stone. I live a fact-based life, and want to work to make Wikipedia a better source of information than it already is.
