The daughter of Brooklynites, Ruth Klemm was always a storyteller (however strange) and enjoyed the notion of sharing stories. She spent the last five decades developing a career that left her with unparalleled life experiences. Now, in the late 60s, Ruth embraces the “roller coaster” of retirement with humor about menopause with sincere joy when she met her husband, while remaining an excellent match to her joie de vivre. Her memoir is undeniably warm, genuine, and inviting, where she enables readers to see that retirement is a new beginning, full of possibilities, horizons ahead, and fresh starts.

Ruth writes about the funny, awkward, and beautiful side of aging… in the tone of having a heartfelt conversation with your best friend. Ruth loves to write. When she is not writing, she is enjoying quiet time with her husband, laughing at what life throws at them, enjoying the moment, and anticipating the next adventure. Ruth’s warmth is contagious, as she encourages readers to embrace their unique life journey!
