Gail Sheehy

The Seasoned Woman:
Pursuing the Passionate Life

As a cultural observer and bestselling author of 15 books, she has changed the way millions of people look at their lives. Her original landmark work, Passages, made history, remaining on The New York Times bestseller list for more than three years and has been reprinted in 28 languages. A Library of Congress survey named Passages one of the ten most influential books of our time. Celebrating 30 years of historic influence, Random House has re-issued Passages in 2006 for a whole new generation.

Sheehy continues her groundbreaking work with her new book Sex and the Seasoned Woman: Pursuing the Passionate Life, reporting on the emergence of a new phenomenon among Boomer women. Sheehy says, "The book is only the beginning." She hopes to start a movement by connecting Seasoned Women around the world through her new website, Seasoned Woman’s Network (www.seasonedwomansnetwork.com), a forum for conversations, inspirations, and exchanges of life experience while pursuing a passionate life.

One of the most popular speakers on the lecture circuit, Sheehy offers dynamic programs based on her groundbreaking investigations and observations of the lives of men and women within different phases of their lives. She is also a provocative speaker on women’s health issues and on how and why companies can survive global competition with a "WWW strategy—Winning With Women."
