A precious little poodle named Gigi. She was a sweetie. Have any pets now?

I have four dogs -- three mutts and a Scottie named McDuff -- two cats and a bunny. Your favorite thing to do when not working?

Drink wine and read a book Your favorite place to shop?

I'm a shopaholic (laughs). I love clothes. My favorite city to shop in is New York, and my favorite store is Neiman Marcus. Or I order by phone from St. John's Knits.
Your favorite place to eat?

For casual, the White Dog on Main Street; for elegant meals, I'd say Maestro in Northern Virginia Your idea of luxury?

A quiet day at home in front of the fire with my family and my pets CD in your stereo right now?

My very favorite, which is Kiri Te Kanawa singing Gershwin What did you do Saturday night?

My husband, my daughter and I went to "Two Weeks Notice" and then we had dinner at the Peking. What do you most admire in a man?

Self-assurance What do you most admire in a woman?

A warm and easy-going manner and a sense of humor If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

The amount I worry. I worry too much, and I shouldn't. What's your favorite spot in Richmond?

Well, after the Robins-Starr Humane Center (laughs), the Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden How would your dad describe you?

"Deeply committed to a wonderful cause but too hard-working" Three spices you can't live without?

Garlic, garlic, and garlic! Your worst vice or guilty pleasure?:

Spending money on clothes How would you describe your dance moves?

Actually quite good. I was a dancer up until the time I went to law school. A very serious dancer. I went to North Carolina School of the Arts for four years as a dance student, studying classical ballet. I love to dance. I love to waltz and foxtrot. Magazines you read religiously?

I love magazines: Gourmet, Vanity Fair, Town and Country, Vogue, and Our Animals Your motto?

Always deliver more than you promised Favorite shoes?

I have a lot of shoes. That's part of my great love of clothes. My favorite is probably a pair of black high-heeled, pointy-toed Stuart Weitzman boots Where did your husband propose?

In my car in a parking lot at T.C. Williams in our second year of law school





Vanity Fair
