My First 65 Years

Many of Ellen’s intimate, playful stories will make you laugh. Her natural exuberance and fascination with life is contagious. She rivaled her grandmother’s catering career with a love of cooking, fine foods, and gluttony. Her “Brownie” camera pictures led her collecting enough photographs to fill this book (and many others.) Stories of her love of travel will make you want to hop on a plane. Her passions (chocolate, sex, cats, the arts, etc.) may become your temptations. Even her most painful experiences - the deaths of her beloved aunt and brother, her infertility, and the loss of her business gave her strength. Ellen’s unique perspective will encourage you to value your own precious memories. Ellen M. Levy, B.S., M.A., C.A.G.S., grew up in Newton, Massachusetts. She has worked in non-profit management for over 30 years. This is her first full-length book.
