My name is Rebecca
Frager and I have been the high school librarian at Woodlawn High School for 18
years. I began my life’s journey in
the Midwest where I grew up in the city of St. Louis. My first career was a
Radiologic Technologist where I worked at Barnes/Jewish hospital, a major
teaching hospital complex in St. Louis, Mo. From there, it was westward bound
to Boise, Idaho where I spent the next 15 years raising three children and, eventually, attending Boise State University after my children were grown. I finally headed east, landing in Baltimore,
Maryland where I began my second career as a librarian at Woodlawn High
School. Of all the regions I have
lived, Maryland is my favorite. I love
the hometown feel of St. Louis and, of course, the Cardinals! I love the wide openness and beauty of
Idaho. But most of all, I love the
history and diversity of Maryland and consider it my home.
My hobbies are
varied. I enjoy baking bread and
cooking of any kind. I am always
trying out new recipes. I grew up in a
musical family and, as a result, I play piano, a little guitar, and the
harp. I am now teaching myself to play
the Ukulele. Two years ago, I taught
myself to crochet, and now, I have far too many dishcloths. I have also made a couple of baby blankets
and hats for the grandbabies. I also
love antiquing. If I need something
for my house, I prefer old stuff to new. Finally, I spend much of my free time virtually teaching English to kids from all over the globe. I have students from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Vietnam, India, China, Taiwan, and Korea. This has been a great experience and I get to learn about so many different cultures!
