Jamie Gangel:
`A lot of my
friends have
family members
who are going to
be at this speech."
Accidental Career
Gangel had no intention of going into
broadcast journalism when she attend-
ed the School of Foreign Service at
Georgetown University and went on
to an international economics pro-
gram at Harvard.
The daughter of a judge and the
stepdaughter of a lawyer, she antici-
pated a career as an attorney, but her
parents urged her to try another field
before entering law school.
Gangel, who grew up in New York,
worked two jobs at the same time:
Mondays-Fridays in one newsroom
and weekends in another. "I started as
a desk assistant ripping wires [taking
copy from teletype machines] and
learning how to do the job and fell in
love with what I was doing," she says.
"When I was 25, I was a local radio
reporter in Washington, D.C. I got
my first job in local TV in Miami.
Somebody at NBC had watched and
called to ask me to work for the net-
work. I've been there ever since."
Gangel, married to mystery novelist
Daniel Silva, met her husband when
they were both correspondents in the
Iran-Iraq war. He quit his job with
United Press International and
became a producer for CNN in
Washington to be with her.
"I couldn't do my job if he wasn't
doing his," Gangel says. "One of the
great advantages of being a writer and
working at home is that he is there for
our twins when I have to go some-
place on assignment."
Judaism is very important in
Gangel's life. The family is active in
Temple Sinai in the nation's capital,
and Silva's last five books have an
Israeli spy as the main character.
"I'm pleased to see that my children,
Lily and Nicholas, strongly identify
with Judaism," she says. "They
remind me every Friday to light the
candles. They went to a Jewish pre-
school, and when they graduated, I
asked my son if he would like a pres-
ent. I thought he would ask for a toy,
but he said he wanted a menorah. I'll
never forget it."
Gangel feels a special connection to
the Hadassah luncheon.
"I've discovered that a lot of my
friends have family members who are
going to be at this speech, so I'm
thrilled about that," she says. "One
woman, Gaby Davis, is the grand-
mother of a best friend of my chil-
dren. Another is the sister of a mem-
ber of my camera crew." LJ
