In this captivating episode of "Conversations with Rich Bennett," hosts Rich Bennett and Wendy Beck sit down with the remarkable Babette Hughes, a 101-year-old author with a lifetime of stories and wisdom. Babette shares her incredible journey, reflecting on her family's dramatic history, including her father's murder during a mafia turf war, and how these experiences have influenced her novels. With over eight published books, she started her writing career in her seventies, proving it's never too late to follow your passions.
Babette discusses the value of aging, the insights gained from life's challenges, and her perspective on historical events.
