About Cindy Richards

She has been a reporter, editor and columnist at the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune, an editor at Chicago Parent and Catalyst Chicago and an instructor in the graduate school at Northwestern's prestigious Medill School of Journalism.

Now that the kids are grown and have licenses of their own, they pine for that hot convertible.
