PEOPLE PROFILE

EVELYN BOARDMAN

Occupation: owner, Madder Rose Ltd., fashion assessories shop.

Pet Peeve: "Ethnic insult jokes."

The book I'd recommend is: "`The Man from Missouri,' by Harry Truman. The segment on human rights is quite apropos right now."

I've always looked up to. Why? "My parents, who taught me to keep my head on my shoulders and those pets of the world who allowed me to raise my shoulders to the clouds."

The best part of my life will be when: "The human conditions become such that I can read or watch the news without having a lump in my throat."
