As a former pupil of Dr. Robert Butler and alumni of the International Longevity Center, I encourage Savvy Senior readers to watch Aging in America: Survive or Thrive! This is one-hour documentary, narrated by Martin Sheen, that celebrates the promise of increased longevity while addressing crucial and unprecedented public policy challenges. Using Dr. Butler’s Pulitzer Prize winning book, Why Survive? as a guide, this film explores critical topics such as ageism, healthcare, economic insecurity, and Alzheimer’s disease.
