Doesn't anyone anywhere question anything in an interview anymore?
Quote:
Sara Horowitz, 49, the founder of the Freelancers Union, has a commitment to workers’ rights that runs several generations deep: her paternal grandfather was vice president of the International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union, and her father was a union lawyer. She received a MacArthur Fellowship in 1999. Ms. Horowitz, who grew up in Brooklyn Heights, lives in a brownstone in Park Slope with her husband, Peter DeChiara, 47, a lawyer whose firm represents unions, and their daughter, Rachel, 12. Like many of the freelancers whose champion she has become, she mixes work and home life on Sundays.
