My Single Peeps: Erin M.

Jewish Journal January 18, 2012

Erin’s a selfish girl. She’s spent 12 years working as a registered nurse, specializing in adult critical care and pediatric post-surgical care. Her last seven vacations have been to Asia and South America, though instead of getting her hair braided and lying on a beach, she spent all day in surgery volunteering with a program called ReSurge International that does reconstructive surgery on the world’s poor. I gave a dollar to a homeless guy a few days ago, and I’m still waiting for my trophy. And now this selfish girl has me feeling “less than.” How dare she.

My Single Peeps: Gary L.

Jewish Journal January 12, 2012

Gary’s brother, Jason, is a recent single peep. And, like Jason, Gary’s a nice, easygoing guy.

My Single Peeps: Sarica C.

Jewish Journal January 4, 2012

I’ve become fascinated with meeting single peeps who are only children. Sarica is one of them. Whatever negatives there are growing up without siblings, the positives are immediately apparent. Sarica, like others I’ve met, is overachieving, confident and a natural leader. She also happens to be really smart.

My single peeps: Aimee L.

Jewish Journal December 21, 2011

Aimee was born and raised in Memphis, Tenn., but went to college in upstate New York to get as far away from the South as possible.

My Single Peeps: Lisa L

Jewish Journal December 14, 2011

Lisa describes herself as looking like Shirley Temple, “But I’m spicy — not vanilla.” She’s originally from New York, then moved to San Francisco for 12 years.

My Single Peeps: Jason L.

Jewish Journal December 7, 2011

Jason lives in the same building as I do and shares an apartment with two friends from high school. During our interview him for this profile, one of the roommates, Rebecca, wanders around the house, eavesdropping.

My Single Peeps: Eva F.

Jewish Journal November 30, 2011

I met Eva this year as part of EILI, an entertainment leadership group through The Jewish Federation.

My Single Peeps: Ian L.

Jewish Journal November 22, 2011

Ian grew up with two much older sisters, but “I was kind of like an only child … good life, good childhood, maids … I even had a wet nurse.”

My Single Peeps: Esther H.

Jewish Journal November 16, 2011

Esther walks into Starbucks to sit down with me, recognizes a young guy at the table next to us and gives him a hug. “He’s my acting coach.” She sits down, continuing, “I noticed people come off kvetchy [in the column]. I want to come off on a higher level. On a sophisticated level.” Her accent is the Jewish Bronx of the 1940s.

My Single Peeps: Jaclyn L.

Jewish Journal November 9, 2011

Jaclyn spent her childhood moving from place to place: “We were a gypsy family.” So she has a lot to compare it to when she says, “I love L.A. I love living here. It’s got everything. And I like the people. I dispute most of the clichéd descriptions of the people in L.A. I found very intellectual, deep-thinking and smart people out here.”
