Betsy Vierck
Professional Background:
I have worked in the field of aging in a number of capabilities
for over twenty years including over a decade as an analyst
- researcher - writer working for the US Senate. I presently
work part time as Senior Manager/Senior Editor, Medicare Medicaid
Products, for Information Handling Services in Englewood,
CO. I also do a fair amount of consulting.
An interesting crossroads presents itself in my career as
my own aging is catching up to my professional interest and
I am about to be a subject in my own experiment on aging.
I find this to be an exhilaraing fact.
Selection of Books:
Presently I am finishing writing American Seniors: A Factbook
on Demographics, Health, and Aging, which will be published
this summer by Paramount Market Publishing. (My co-author
is a demographer)
