Zesty spiritual programming is Marge’s specialty. When she is the “Presence-in-Residence” in your home or your congregation, you get a combination of wisdom gained through life and experience, deep study of texts, bracing originality and creative tools (plus delicious food!). It’s so much more than a traditional “scholar-in-residence” or keynote speaker — stories and songs to lift the spirit.

Peruse the website for a variety of programs that have been created, or reach out to dream up something special for your own group’s needs.



Born and raised in suburban Milwaukee, after retiring from Chase Bank in 2023, Marge decided to embark on the Tour de Force for Good, and has been traveling around the US — based in Kirkland, WA or Milwaukee, WI or Boca Raton, FL depending on the season! Take a listen to the song above so you understand why I’m in Love with Love!

Marge blends Midwestern common sense, Jewish spiritual practice and a facility for reaching people and connecting to them in engaging ways. An award-winning teacher for all ages, the list of programs offered on this site is but a sampling of possibilities. Over the last 25+ years, Marge has presented at URJ and WRJ Biennials, CAJE and NewCAJE conferences, LIMMUD UK, New York, Scotland and Chicago, led teacher training and continuing education for boards of Jewish education and synagogues, given keynote addresses and concerts all over the US and Canada and UK (England and Scotland). Her new music is being featured at FARM (Folk Alliance Regional Midwest) and even at “Bosom Buddies” Drag show at La Cage in Milwaukee!
