Author and Activist Sue Katz Joins the Aged to Perfection Podcast
Join me as I welcome author, activist, wordsmith and rebel Sue Katz back to the podcast. Her new short story collection, Lillian’s Last Affair, is available now and it’s one of the things we talk about. We also chat about her recent essay here, From Baby Butch to Curmudgeon, which garnered a lot of reactions and circulation, becoming one of the most widely discussed posts at lgbtSr. I’m excited to have Sue on again and talk about her book, issues dear to her, and her thought-provoking perspectives.
Sue is a wordsmith and rebel who has lived and worked on three continents: first as a martial arts master, then promoting transnational volunteering, and currently teaching fitness and dance to seniors and elders. Katz is an experienced and popular public speaker and event M.C. – as well as a lifelong activist who was in on the ground floor of both the women’s and gay liberation movements. Her fiction and non-fiction have been published in anthologies, magazines, and online. She writes on a range of topics, not the least aging and sexualities. Lillian’s Last Affair was a three-year labor of love. She now lives in Arlington, MA. You can reach her at: sue.katz AT yahoo.com.
