Trudy James: Ahead of Her Time The Art Of Risk

    • Society & Culture

Spiritual, emotional, professional, financial—how many risks can you take in one lifetime? In seventy-eight years Trudy James has taken all of these and more. As an interfaith chaplain she’s successfully created care team programs for people with AIDS when they were considered untouchables, end-of-life planning workshops before they were chic and made Speaking of Dying a documentary on dying well when no one wanted to talk about it. But between the successes, there were also some failures as not every risk paid off in the same way.
Trudy talks about following your heart, dealing with misogyny, death and dying, film making and living deeply.
