An Ode to Erma Bombeck

Hello dear friend,

My deepest apologies! I accidentally sent you a broken link to Erma's story. That has been fixed below.

A few weeks back, on February 21st, Erma Bombeck would have turned 93-years-old. She was almost 40 when her humor column was syndicated.

Erma said she started writing it because she "was too old for a paper route, too young for Social Security, and too tired for an affair." But that's nowhere near the whole story.

With her trademark wit, Erma took on aging, motherhood, and pointless cultural norms. For women weary of 1950s stereotypes, hearing "No one ever died from an unmade bed" wasn't just funny, it was revolutionary. 

Erma was wildly successful for three more decades, something she never anticipated. (She passed away at age 69 from kidney disease.)

But it all started with the courage to take a chance on herself later in life.

More Proof It's Never Too Late

I met some very interesting faces and I wanted to do a separate project with them. A modeling agency became that sort of project.
