Jennifer thought it would be interesting to report that she wrote and published two books in recent years: “What Did Uncle Harold Know?” in 2016, and “Defying Adversity as I Race to Achieve My Dreams” in 2024. The first book imagines what her long-deceased great-uncle might have learned in his long career as a bartender at the famous Copacabana in New York and then at The Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. The second book is a memoir about her long career and life joys, such as becoming the first intern in 1973 of an unknown new U.S. Senator named Joe Biden, as well as spending a weekend at the Kennedy Compound and sailing with Ethel Kennedy and several of her children in 1978. Jennifer later worked on the White House Staff. But a nightmare was following her during all these wonderful years: terrible physical symptoms that defied medical diagnosis and inspired dismissive reactions from doctors. The future development of MRI technology would at last confirm what she had believed. She had Multiple Sclerosis. Both books are available on Amazon.
