Thank you for the gift link! Now I need to read her books!
Watched Sunset Boulevard on the big screen yesterday for the 75th anniversary (Fathom Events). Near the end you learn that Norma is 50 years old. I’d love to do a class on aging women in the cinema. This movie is a good example of what we think of “old” women.
What a great question! #genchat

check it out!
Great idea!
Just arrived. Make sure to check out Dr Wulf’s website for her essays. karinwulf.com . Looking forward to diving into this #genealogy #history.
Hmmmm. We rarely went to the movies growing up but my aunt took me to see Star Wars when it came out in the 1970s.
No problem!

I’ve always wanted to read this. How is it?
Great! See you there!
They either give a blank stare and ask me what that is or they assume I’m a Dr., a gemologist, or geologist ;). So I tend not to see I’m a genealogist. Instead I say that I teach or write on historical topics. Most of the time they aren’t really interested anyway, they are just making small talk.
