Susan was born on December 27, 1940, in New York, New York. She graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.A. in English and later obtained a Ph.D. in psychology from the City University of New York.

Susan married Jerrold in 1967 in a ceremony held in New York City. From 1969-1971, Susan and Jerrold welcomed their two children, Elisabeth and Seth, in New York City and subsequently relocated to Scarsdale, New York.

Susan is remembered by her children as a passionate and patient mother and academic, who loved the challenge of completing the New York Times crossword puzzle as much as a long stroll with her beloved children and grandchildren. Susan's love of education and learning inspired her children, both of whom have advanced degrees in fields that they are likewise passionate about.

The family has planned a private service to honor Susan's life and memory for October 2, 2019. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to alz.org . The family would like to thank the lovely and caring men and women at The Kensington White Plains for their care and dedication to Susan in her final months of life.
