This was such a delightful read about one incredible woman! Gloria is truly Renaissance material, with a vibrant love of life and art that has kept her so creative and individual within all of her soon to be 99 (!) years. This book renders a glimpse into her fascination and involvement with everything from acting and men, to bonsai and printmaking. A joy to read and hopeful inspiration for all of us, who day by day, are aging too, and how to make that fact of life more graceful!
