After a motherhood break, Sondra decided to pursue a career as a gemologist. In a small office two people appeared who led her to exotic venues. Soon she was making trips to Brazil and Thailand buying magnificent colored gemstones. In a stroke of luck she was able to show her gems in the world's biggest rock and gem show held every February in Tucson, Arizona. As the Tucson gem show expanded she was chosen to be on the board of a newly created gem business trade group. This honor presented her with a glimpse of power as well as frustration with traditional attitudes. New opportunities appeared and her world expanded. Traveling presents many great experiences and tribulations. She introduces the many people in the gem business, many of whom had to overcome displacement during World War II. She approaches difficult challenges as humorous learning experiences.
