  • Summary

  • It's never too late to tell your story! In this episode of Aging Rewired, Sheila speaks with Gerontology doctoral student Samuel Van Vleet, and students Richard Brunner and Jerry Riesenberg from his ‘How to Make a Movie’ class at the Institute for Learning in Retirement at Miami University in Ohio. Older adult students in this class learn the art of filmmaking from the ground up using modern digital techniques and equipment. Hear firsthand from Richard and Jerry as they discuss their experiences making their first short film, the place of older adults in higher education, and the transformative power of storytelling at any age.
