Predicated on Amy Gorman's interviews, Aging Artfully portrays the lives of 12 radiant women in the visual and performing arts, all in their ninth 10 years and beyond, coping with zest. These are living in the San Francisco Bay Area, via diverse ethnic backgrounds: Frances Catlett, painter; Elsie Ogata, ikebana artist; Isabel Ferguson, acting professional and visual artist; Lily Hearst, pianist; Sophistication Gildersleeve, rug braider; Ann Davlin (aka Sophistication Lowell), dancer; Mary Beth Washington (aka Orunamama), storyteller: Rosa Maria Morales Escobar, folklorico dancer; Madeleine Mason, sculptor; Dorothy Takahashi Toy, dancer; Faith Petric, folksinger; Stella Toogood, storyteller. The publication honors the abundant creativity of aging and challenges popular negative attitudes and perceptions toward being old. The publication suggests explanations why arts activities are ideal ways to increase health within the last periods of life. The positive role models portrayed are still completely involved with and deeply in love with their art forms. They haven't any time for complaining.
