Madeliene Kunin Reading

Past event

All seats $0

Presented with The Galaxy Bookshop

Former three-term governor of Vermont Madeliene Kunin comes to the Highland Center for the Arts to read from her newest book, a memoir entitled Coming of Age: My Journey to the Eighties. The topic is aging, and she explores physical and emotional tolls and explores the emotional ones in an extraordinary life: governor, ambassador, feminist, wife, mother, professor, poet, and much, much more. As recently reported in the New York Times, a girl born today can expect to live to the age of 90, on average (boys, on the other hand, can expect to live until age 85). Life expectancy, for many, is increasing, yet people rarely contemplate the emotional changes that come alongside the physical changes of aging. Coming of Age: My Journey to the Eighties takes a close and incisive look at what it is like to grow old.
