About Margot Black:
What makes me an expert in parenthood? Well, as I write this my five-year-old son Jett is still alive.
I came to motherhood and marriage late in life. The good news is that I've gained a lot of wisdom, the bad news is that as a publicist working in Hollywood, the extra pounds I put on since pregnancy needs to be constantly hidden by two pairs of Spanx.
Before starting my boutique PR business I was a stand-up comedian, and that's been great training for having a kid: I can't remember the last time I sat down.
I long for a kidney-shaped swimming pool, natural blond hair, and to one day leave for a meeting without finding Cheerios in my underpants.
I'm proud to say that in my spare time, I am a trophy wife to my husband, Rob and a perfect mom to our 5 yr old son Jett. Archives

What’s a Jew To Do (at Christmas)?
I’m a Jewish mother. Christmas is the enemy. There – I said it. There’s no way Hanukkah can compete with Christmas. Hanukkah, in comparison to Christmas, is a complete dud. Flat and flavorless like a leftover latke. How am I … Continue reading
