With commitment -- with a movement -- there is hope and opportunity. Millions of aging individuals are seeking new ways to remain healthy, active, engaged and contributing members of society. Thoughtful leaders are beginning to pay attention and respond to the demographic wave. Solutions are being discussed and developed. From new approaches to wellness and health care, to senior-friendly housing and transportation systems, to encore education and career opportunities, to the use of new technologies and social networks to engage seniors, innovation abounds. The Upside of Aging: How Long Life Is Changing the World of Health, Work, Innovation, Policy and Purpose will be an edited book by Paul Irving, Senior Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer of the Milken Institute, with chapters written by American leaders who speak to the challenges and promises of our age shift.

About the Narrators

Derek Shetterly is a graduate of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale with a BA in radio/television and a double-minor in theatre and Spanish. He spent twenty-three years in radio as an on-air talent and production director, and it was the creative process in writing, performance, and production and his love for acting that evolved into a passion for voice-over work. He now works as a freelance, full-time voice talent out of his home studio in Oregon. When he’s not in the voice booth, you might find him traveling, fly fishing, mountain biking, or cross-country skiing (depending on the weather).

Rosemary Benson is a voice talent and audiobook narrator whose lifetime of live performance includes musical and audience interactive theater, cabaret, touring with bands and ensembles internationally, recording, and hosting special events.
