Andrea Rouda, b. 1946 |
Andrea Rouda, nee Schamis, is a female human being of Jewish heritage. She was born the old-fashioned way to two parents, a mother and a father, in Brooklyn, New York. She began her education at age five at Covert Elementary School in South Hempstead, NY and continued, with a year off working in an advertising agency, until graduating from New York University at age 22.
At age 24 she married, moved to Washington, D.C., got a job as a graphic designer and bought a car. She then got a divorce, lost the car and began seeing a psychiatrist. Eventually she married business mogul Mitchell Rouda and had a child and a car of her own.
Over her lifetime she dabbled in many pursuits, mostly hair color and pets. She has had the following hair colors and animals:
Blonde
Red
Dark Brown
Brown with blond frosting
Black
Auburn
Blonde with brown highlights
Several parakeets: Rocky, Max and Shakespeare
A boxer named Caesar
A grey tabby named Miranda
An orange tabby named Simon
A calico named Minnie
A grey and white domestic short hair named Donald
A mutt named Mickey
A brown tabby named Daisy
A Persian/ragdoll named Gizmo
A Maine Coon named Big Lurch
A pug named Tank
A miniature schnauzer named Rufus
Rouda has undergone several surgeries, none life-threatening but all botched. She is severely myopic and has worn glasses since the age of 13. (For a time she wore contact lenses but found them uncomfortable.) She currently resides in Freeport, Maine where she continues to dabble in hair color and keep cats. She is a writer, fine artist and excellent cook. Her cheesecake is to die for.
