Concerning Myself
Where I'm from.
I'm from New York City!!, which is probably the greatest city in the world. Since New York City is such a big city (being composed of 5 Boroughs) I guess you could say that I'm from Queens which is the largest and second-most populated of the 5 Boroughs that compose my great city. Within the County of Queens I reside in Forest Hills, which is where the West Side Tennis Club is located. Besides myself, many famous people have lived in Forest Hills such as Hank Azaria, Burt Bacharach,The Ramones, and Ray Romano. Forest Hills is about a little bit less than an hour away from Manhattan by Subway. If for example you wanted to get to Times Square, Downtown, and into Brooklyn you would find yourself on the F-Line
My Immediate Family and myself are the first in our Extended Family to live somewhere other than Philadelphia, but we visit the city of brotherly love quite often, so I know it quite well. I'm also a citizen of the Czech Republic through my mother. However I speak no Czech, and have not visited Prague and the surrounding country as often as I would like to.
Family

The only living member of her biological family still alive in the United States is Lotte Kleinzeller (but it appears as though this Ancestry.com link isn't working) My Father's side of the family has resided in the United States (Philadelphia, PA) for quite some time. My Grandfather,Bernard Richmanfought in World War II. However, "Fought" is probably a bad term as he manned radar stations in Santa Barbara, CA.
