In this episode of Your History Your Story, our guest is Mary Lou Falcone. Mary Lou is an internationally known classical music publicist and an advocate for Lewy Body Dementia awareness. Today we will be talking about her powerful memoir, “I Didn’t See It Coming: Scenes of Love, Loss, and Lewy Body Dementia.”

In her memoir, Mary Lou shares deeply personal stories, such as her father’s devastating stroke in the 1950s when she was just a child and her journey as caregiver to her husband and soulmate, Nicky Zann. A 1950s rock ‘n’ roll musician turned celebrated artist, Nicky passed away from Lewy Body Dementia in 2020. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation about love, loss, and resilience.
