Suzanne Boyd on Vogue Cover Controversy & Daniel Levitin on Successful Aging

Next week, Kamala Harris will be sworn in as the first female, first Black, and first South Asian Vice-President of the United States. She will also grace the February cover of the iconic Vogue magazine. But there’s growing backlash over the casual styling of the cover shot, which you can see here, and which critics say is disrespectful. Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour says there was no disrespect intended. Libby asked Suzanne Boyd, Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of Zoomer Magazine, to decode the controversy. AND Given that the pandemic is hitting the older population especially hard, we think it’s a good time to take another look at the science behind aging well. Neuroscientist Daniel Levitin’s book, Successful Aging has just come out in paperback and Libby reached him, in lockdown, in Los Angeles.
