After earning a Ph.D. in psychology, Carol Goodman Kaufman pursued post-doctoral work in criminology, during which time she wrote the book Sins of Omission: The Jewish Community's Reaction to Domestic Violence. A few years ago, she changed direction and began conducting research on food history, and now pens regular columns for both Jewish press and the Worcester Telegram & Gazette as well as freelance articles for regional and national publications. Her volunteer life spans four decades, and includes leadership positions with local, regional, and national organizations.
