Elisabeth Heimlich @1999

When they were married in 1988, Peter Heimlich & Karen Shulman started a wholesale textile design and import company which they continue to operate. Before then, Karen had her own fine art jewelry business. In the 80s, Peter played bass and wrote songs with The Lloyds, one of San Francisco's fave New Wave club bands. Here's a video of heavy metal hottie Lita Ford lip-synching one of Peter's tunes on the 80's TV show, Dance Fever:

 

Karen was an English major and got her BS from UMass Amherst in 1984. Peter got his BS from Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Journalism in 1977 where he spent many waking hours at the Daily Orange. During his college years, Peter was a freelance writer for the Cincinnati Enquirer and other papers, and won the Hearst National Journalism Award.

Karen and Peter live in suburban Atlanta.
 

Good fortune and thanks to friends, known and unknown, who helped along the way.

(Special ups to Pamela Mills-Senn and the late Dr. Joseph S. Redding who weren't afraid to be the first to say they smelled a rat.)
