This is an encore Living to 100 Club appearance by our guest, Sky Bergman. Sky was a guest on this podcast in August 2019, just after the release of her film documentary, Lives Well Lived. This film told the stories of adults 75 to 100 years old, thriving and enjoying their senior years. In today’s program, Sky shares her continued role as a film producer to combat ageism through intergenerational connections. Her latest book is Lives Well Lived – GENERATIONS. We explore the topics of resilience, positivity, and insights from older adults with 3,000 years of collective experience. How do intergenerational connections combat ageism? How can we learn from one another and what are some examples of intergenerational programs around the country. We also hear about Sky’s latest films in production, Prime Time Band, a collection of musicians in their 60’s through their 90’s in Santa Barbara California. The other is Mochtisuki, the Japanese tradition that brings generations together through food. Be sure to tune in for this uplifting conversation about the positives of aging. Mini Bio Sky Bergman, Professor Emeritus of Photography and Video at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, is in her third act after a 30-year teaching career. Her artwork is in prestigious museum collections, and her commercial work has appeared in renowned magazines like the Smithsonian. Sky’s passion is creating films and projects that inspire intergenerational connections, emphasizing the power of shared stories. Following her successful PBS documentary "Lives Well Lived," her book "Lives Well Lived — GENERATIONS" distills wisdom from the film, celebrating life’s essence across generations.
