Dave Iverson joins Denise to discuss his book, "Winter Stars: An elderly mother, an aging son, and life’s final journey."
About Dave
During his broadcast journalism career, Dave Iverson produced over 20 documentary specials for PBS, including the Frontline film My Father, My Brother and Me (2009), and Capturing Grace (2015). He also hosted local NPR/PBS programs at KQED in San Francisco and served as a special correspondent to the PBS NewsHour.
Iverson was 56 when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, and a few years later he decided to do something he’d never imagined—he moved back home to care for his 95-year-old mother, Adelaide. Winter Stars is the story of the ten-year journey that followed. For anyone who’s considering taking on a caregiving role, Iverson’s memoir offers an intimate, unvarnished portrait of the challenges and changes that lie ahead.
