Aging in High Heels

"​In my latest book, I challenge the way we think about aging. The title, Aging in High Heels, means walking into a room with attitude. You don't really need high heels on, you just have to feel that you do. You have to feel like 'I'm here, I'm relevant, and I have something to say!'"

"Yours is an amazing story, full of humility and spunk and old Los Angeles history--you bring a forgotten Beverly Hills alive--you bring communities of women into focus -you do so much and you do it with a nuance that makes you the woman everyone wants to know, befriend, marry, be their mother, grandmother, put her art in their rooms." - Alice Randall, songwriter and author of Soul Food Love and The Wind Done Gone.
