Positive Aging

When award-winning author and international journalist Marilyn Murray Willison turned 65 years old, she found it hard to believe that she had officially become a senior citizen. That landmark birthday -- currently being shared every year by millions of baby boomers -- signaled an opportunity to restructure her perspective, attitudes, goals and values. The result of her age-inspired, soul-searching journey is a new column that is specifically tailored to the interests and concerns of mature Americans. "Positive Aging" will introduce readers to a fresh, but experienced voice that will gently guide seniors through the complexities of entering the golden years. View Marilyn's full bio here.
