In the second of our series on "The State of Civility in America," we talk with Harvard Psychiatrist Dr. Joseph Shrand, whose new book, "Unleashing the Power of Respect," may just be the first step toward a cure for the rampant incivility that is plaguing our country.
We launch our series on "The State of Civility in America" with a lively conversation with Catherine Ryan Hyde, New York Times Best-Selling Author of "Pay It Forward." Catherine has written 40 books, including her latest novel "Boy Underground" which was just published. The theme of civility runs through all her writing. In this conversation, she shares the insights she has gained through her writing about the qualities that can make our world a nicer place, and what we can do about the rapidly declining state of civility in our own country.
A visit to our local graveyard to meet up in a 100 year-old mausoleum with Adela Marquez of Hollywood Forever Cemetery, which hosts not only the remains of dozens of Hollywood celebrities, but also welcomes departed souls to visit every year at the Dia de los Muertos -- the Day of the Dead.
