Peggy Pusch travels for work so she is less often found at the Meriwether, where she “lives,” than someplace else in the world. However, when she is here, she enjoys what Portland has to offer, going to the symphony, the ballet, museums and galleries, and the theater. She is Associate Director of the Intercultural Communication Institute and Executive Director of a professional organization for interculturalists. And she has a brand new bike!
