her website
www.alexandrarobbins.com gives a very tiny biography of her - she is a grad from Harvard (i think that's what i read)
AS for telling our own stories, i know my Supreme Council would (and has) discouraged members from sharing any stories....I'm sure they wouldn't approve of a member writing anything using its name whether its good or bad...so one would have to use fake names which kind of distorts the whole thing....
