Phyllis Greene was 81 years old when we did this radio show together.
Greene lived in Columbus and this memoir was getting a lot of attention.
She had just appeared as a guest on The Today Show. Her good humor was a
delight. Her memories were poignant. And her insights are timeless.

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public LibraryClark County Public LibraryDayton Metro LibraryWright Memorial Public Library, and Tipp City Public.
