Roz Katz is an attractive and elegant Jewish-American woman from New England in her late 40s with a bit of a drinking problem which might have contributed to her divorce from therapist Dr. Katz, though she'll never admit this and uses her constant wine consumption to appear classy. She is on amicable terms with her ex-husband and their adult son Ben who she never sees, though she is much more busy taking expensive vacations with her ex-husband's alimony payments
