Video: Life (Part 2)
LIFE (PART 2) is a smart, daring series on the subject of aging. The program doesn't offer a Pollyannaish vision of growing old. It's a straight-talking show filled with honesty, integrity and humor. Each week, host Alan Rosenberg and a panel of regular contributors, guest experts and celebrities delve deeply into a range of topics. Each episode features field pieces - visits to people around the country; freewheeling, roundtable discussions; one-on-one interviews; and brief personal essays.
