About the Author

Rosaline Tafler, affectionately known as "Grandma Roz," was born in Montreal on October 7, 1923, to Annie and Myer Tafler. The youngest of four children, Rosaline wrote her first poem at the age of eight, and never looked back. She married Julius Marinoff in 1950, and raised a family in Montreal. Her eldest son is philosopher and author Lou Marinoff, who credits her for his literary formation. Roz's poems are paragons of wit and wisdom. She is also a lifetime contract bridge master, and has lately taken up painting. Now in her ninety-fifth year, Grandma Roz is the resident "poet laureate" of the Donald Berman Maimonides Centre, and is much beloved by family, friends, and staff.
