Lynn Ruth Miller has had a tumultuous life! 

She’s survived a challenging childhood, numerous personal disappointments, and many near death experiences and now she’s 86 and going strong!

Over the past nine decades she has been a teacher, writer, and TV presenter, but despite three degrees including one in journalism from Stanford she never managed to get her dream job as a journalist...but in the end she found something better. 

Today, she is the oldest female comedian on both sides of the Atlantic and she is still going strong.

In this show, Lynn shares the ups and downs of her journey and how she overcame fear and learned to love herself. She also gives lots of tips for speaking, humour and storytelling, including how you should relate to your audience so that your talks have greater impact. 

She’s quite a character and I’m sure you’re going to love the show.
