In 2015 I created The Grandparent Effect, a news site that documented the rising importance of grandparents in American families. I ran the site until 2020. It was featured by media outlets around the country, including Harvard Magazine, The New York Times, and National Public Radio. I wrote hundreds of stories for the site. Some of my favorites are below.
In 2017 I was hired by Generations United and The Eisner Foundation to research and write a policy paper about dismantling age segregation. “I Need You, You Need Me: The Young, the Old, and What We Can Achieve Together” was released at this forum at the National Press Club.
