Christine Herbes-Sommers is an award winning independent film maker who has produced over 100 hours of documentary, dramatic and educational programming for PBS since 1976. In her latest documentary, "Coming of Age in Aging America", she asks: what does it mean for a society to have so many people living so much longer? Rather than looking at aging as an individual predicament, the documentary makes connections to social policies and institutions, tackling topics such as how we work and where we live and how those arrangements could—or should—be updated to meet the current reality.
