Her father, a Pennsylvania native of German and Croatian descent, was a psychiatric social worker in the US Army, and then became the dean of the college. Mother Nurse was born in Scotland and later moved to America. The couple met in Algeria, and the wedding celebration took place in Naples. Adults with children moved frequently, and this had its pros and cons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
