About Seniors

Later life in America covers a wide stretch of time: someone retiring at 65 may have three decades ahead, longer than a career. Social Security, signed into law in 1935, and workplace pensions made that stretch financially possible for millions, and what people do with it varies enormously. Older adults run marathons in age-graded divisions, sing in community choirs, mentor apprentices, testify at city council meetings, and write memoirs that turn family stories into records grandchildren can read.

Reach for this one in a senior center activity hour, a retirement community common room, or a classroom unit on aging and family history.
