Jeanne Muchnick
Jeanne Muchnick still thinks she’s 32. Or 28. Or sometimes even 18. The writer/editor – who’s written and worked for various national magazines including Woman’s Day, Woman’s World, Good Housekeeping, Bride’s, Ladies’ Home Journal, Endless Vacation, Caribbean Travel & Life and Parents — considers herself to be the quintessential suburban mom, complete with two daughters who she embarrasses simply by breathing, a husband who doesn’t understand why there are so many beauty products in the bathroom, a lawn that forever needs tending, and a dining room tale that’s constantly topped with catalogs, mails and bills. She is a thrilled to be part of the BA50-community – despite the inner child that lives within her. For more of her snarky commentary go to www.jeannemuchnick.com.
