Collective Wisdom: Lessons, Inspiration, and Advice from Women over 50

Collective Wisdom is a follow-up to In the Company of Women. Grace Bonney presents a collection of interviews, conversations, and photographs featuring over 100 women aged 50 and older, including an Olympic athlete, a NASA team member, and award-winning artists, activists, writers, and filmmakers. The women share their experiences, lessons learned, and the paths they have forged. The book explores intergenerational bonds between women and how knowledge, stories, power, and history are shared across generations. Interviews are conducted by daughters, friends, mentors, and colleagues, creating connections between women of different ages. Through these accounts, the book aims to build community and provide a space for gathering, listening, sharing, and learning.
