Janet Gingold grew up in a big old house with five brothers, three sisters and two very busy parents. Her interest in the way life works led her to the practice of medicine. As a primary care pediatrician she developed a keen interest in how families face the everyday challenges of today's world. When kids came to her for help with school problems, she began to look for solutions through education rather than medication. She loves to learn new things and share them with others. She lives in Maryland with her husband. They have three grown children.
