Meet Lisa Hemminger, aka Professor Forever. The moniker Professor Forever emerged from the relationships Hemminger has made with her students over decades: always welcoming them to ask more questions, to visit her office, to go out to lunch or dinner or for coffee, to feel free to be wholly themselves and know they are safe, and, most particularly, to reach out for help or guidance…for the rest of their lives. Now retired from formal teaching in English, Creative Writing and Film Studies Departments, Professor Forever thrives on finding people of all ages who might need her help or want to discuss issues and ideas. She can’t imagine putting an end to providing guidance in whatever way she can. In fact, PF can also provide help in subjects other than academic. As you will note when you listen to the Professor Forever podcast, PF has experienced many adventures throughout her life–for example, being a drummer in a RockBand band, a performance poet, and a ghost hunter. Please join PF and others as they start this journey!

YouView

My Sister
In one sense, Professor Forever's sister is just an ordinary person---living in a Chicago suburb, working day to day, and managing life like the rest of us. But there is something really special about Bonne.

Words from the wise
I love Lisa’s insights. The wisdom on display here is thought-provoking, endearing, warm, and enlightening.
Insightful, Honest, and Enjoyable
While each episode is surprisingly different from the last, they all contain meaningful nuggets of “lifey” goodness — delivered through The Professor’s unique and entertaining voice and stories — that anyone can learn from or apply to their [sic] own life. A wonderful listen!
