But That's Another Story Marcella Ann Stapor

It began as a simple exercise in a writing class. And yet over the course of several years, it would become a meaningful journey. As Marcella Ann Stapor collected scraps of memories from her long and rich life - a colorful story here, a chance encounter there - a vivid arc came into view. Born in an era in which women were not afforded the career advantages of men, Marcella drew strength from her buoyant spirit and bottomless optimism, ultimately becoming a respected attorney and avid world traveler. In this thoughtful and uplifting memoir, Marcella recalls the indelible events that shaped her extraordinary life, from losing her father at a young age, to confronting gender bias as the only woman in her Brooklyn law school class, to embracing her senior years with the passion and curiosity that have become her trademark. "I believe in karma," Marcella reflects. "I think life should be lived by a moral and ethical code, and I am comfortable knowing where I stand in that regard. In fact, I am looking for my next challenge right now."
