Howdy,

Just like you use two ` in a row (``) for Open Quotes, use two ' in a  
row ('') rather than " for Close Quote.

If you are using TeXShop you can turn on  Auto Complete (Preferences- 
 >Document->Editor->Auto Complete check box) and then pressing " will  
generate ``'' with the cursor between the `` and the ''. You can edit  
the /Users/herbs/Library/TeXShop/Keyboard/autocompletion.plist file  
to change/add/delete bindings.

Good Luck,
