She was a child between eras, growing up before women were viewed for their full potential, in a family who imbued her with a respect for education and a sense of independence she drew upon to strengthen her love for an expanding family: her husband of 54 years, three children, and nine grandchildren. Her career as an occupational therapist, businesswoman and educator drew from these influences. Living on a farm in western NJ, Dr. Breines now takes time to write, having produced several books, chapters and an ongoing column published since 1994. Brooklyn Roots is the first book she has written about herself and her family.view less
