Shirley Shirley Leung! I had the best time on your podcast 'Say More' and during our trip through the newsroom The Boston Globe, seeing old friends and meeting new ones. I never would have expected to be leaning into being 81 years old, but I must say, I'm rather enjoying it!

How glad I was to be invited back to Stephen Colbert The Late Show to talk about the people, the era & causes that matter most to me. This time: my late husband Dick Goodwin & the 1960s, a time when we felt we could make a difference. We need that now! youtube.com/watch?v=dJBjRv…

As crazy as it may sound at my age, I'm on the road to 20+ cities over the next couple of months with my new book published today about the pivotal figures and defining moments of the 1960s and the last great adventure I took with my husband Dick Goodwin before he died.

I am usually the one asking all the questions, but I so enjoyed answering them for Scott Heller ! Our conversation is in today's The New York Times accompanied by a warm, engaging & youthful portrait of me—in the early years of my eighth decade! Rebecca Clarke

'The crosswinds of fate sometimes whip up to such an intensity that politics are upended and the direction of the country reversed in an instant. The end of March and the beginning of April 1968 was such a cataclysmic moment.' You can read more here The Wall Street Journal

Well, hello, welcome to my new home and a literal up-close look at my books, belongings, and even my bedroom! I was worried that finishing 'An Unfinished Love Story' would make me miss my husband & old house more, but it only has kept the memories alive.

This article captures the essence of my new book on the 1960s, a time when individuals were powered by the belief they could make a difference—by joining the Peace Corps, sit-ins & freedom rides, demonstrating against segregation & the denial of the vote. We need this spirit now!

Thanks Robert Costa for visiting Concord & Concord Free Public Library— where Dick and I gave much of our treasured book collection—to talk about my new book, a personal history of the 1960s & JFK, LBJ, RFK. I am excited for CBS Sunday Morning 🌞 to see what resonated w/Robert from our conversation!
