PLATIN

States to pursue a master's degree in
creative writing at Boston University.
There she met her husband, Zayd
Dohrn, a playwright who is now get-
ting his Ph.D. at Columbia. (Dohrn
is the son of the famous 1960s
activists Bill Ayers and Bernardine
Dohrn.)
DeWoskin and Dohrn, who have
named their baby daughter Dalin,
now live in New York City but make
frequent trips to Beijing, where
DeWoskin's parents have an apart-
ment (Ken DeWoskin consults for
Chinese businesses).
She has just completed a novel and
is working on a collection of poetry.
Despite some setbacks, DeWoskin
is encouraged by how the relationship
between China and the United States
has evolved since her departure:
"There are tons of expatriates there,
and tons of Chinese here, and there's
a real sense that people can go back
and forth. People [in China] feel
more free to join in the conversation
with the West."
As for DeWoskin, who has carried
on a conversation with China for
many years now, the country will
always hold a special appeal — and
not just because she was a soap opera
star there. "China was the first place I
rented an apartment, got my own
bank account, learned to cook," she
says. "China was the first place I was
ever a grown-up." EI

"I usually go to Temple on the
High Holy Days and wind up at
someone's Passover seder," she says.
"I am not affiliated with any syna-
gogue in New York but would like
to eventually join one."
For now, Kristin is happy to be a
part of One Life To Live's ensemble
cast. What trials and tribulations are
about to befall Roxy?
"I don't know what the writers
have in mind, but I would love for
them to explore her relationship with
Natalie," says Kristin. "I love the
character, but what's in store for
Roxy is not only a mystery to fans,
it's a mystery to me as well." Cl
