In AGE IS ONLY A NUMBER, a witty 96-year-old reflects on the quirks and challenges of old age. Born and raised in the oddly named town of North, South Carolina, Marcia Bass Brody once appeared on the TV show "You Bet Your Life," in one of the funniest episodes ever. In these poems she pulls no punches in describing the indignities of age, but also reveals how she maintains her spirit and abundant good humor. Both older readers and their families will be enlightened and amused by these sharp-sighted poems.

Brody, Marcia Bass: - Marcia Brody is the fifth of seven children born to Esther and Nathan Bass. Marcia graduated North High School, in North, South Carolina, in 1944 and the University of South Carolina in 1948, with a B.S. in Business Administration. Starting in 1990, Marcia put out a family paper three times a year. Marcia is the co-author, with Kenneth Bass, her nephew, of the published book VOS MAKHSTU Y'ALL: THE BASS FAMILY OF NORTH. Marcia once appeared on the television show "You Bet Your Life," and the host, Bill Cosby, later said that if all the contestants had been like Marcia Brody, the show would still be on the air. The episode of the show still appears on YouTube.com. Marcia is the mother of three children and the grandmother of one.
