A LITTLE ABOUT ME
My name is Asher Abrams, I was born in 1963, and I live in Portland, Oregon.
I love learning about other people, their experiences, and their cultures. I am a passionate feminist, and I have strong ties with the gay community. My parents raised me with a love of books and literature, and that’s still an important part of my life.
I’m also a science geek and currently pursuing a double major in Physics and English at Portland State. Yes, I’m an undergrad ... got started on the college thing a little late in life. No regrets on any of it.
My Jewish life is very important to me. I first started studying Hebrew around age 15; my relationship with the Torah began in earnest in 1988, while I was living in San Francisco. Judaism continues to be a source of moral, intellectual, and creative inspiration for me.
I served ten years in the United States armed forces (Air Force and Marine Corps) ... but that’s a story for another time.
This is my first attempt at blogging, so you will just have to bear with me (please and thank you) while I get my ideas sorted out and decide which ones are worthy of foisting upon the world.
