Join us at a networking brunch co-sponsored by the Cornell Club of Los Angeles and the President’s Council of Cornell Women to hear award-winning columnist Jane Brody cover everything you need to know to prepare for the end of life. Dubbed the “high priestess of health” by TIME Magazine, her book has received superb reviews since its release last year, including a starred review from Publisher’s Weekly.

She will be signing copies of the book, which will be on sale at the event ($26) courtesy of Small World Books in Venice.

Brody is the Personal Health columnist for The New York Times, which she joined in 1965 following a two-year stint as a reporter for the Minneapolis Tribune. Her award-winning column is published in The Times’s Science Times section every Tuesday and in many other newspapers around the country.

A much-sought-after speaker, she lectures frequently to both lay and professional audiences on issues relating to health and wellness, including end-of-life preparation and care. She is the only or principal author of more than a dozen books, including two best-sellers, Jane Brody’s Nutrition Book and Jane Brody’s Good Food Book. She has appeared on hundreds of radio and television programs and starred in her own 10-part show on public television, Good Health from Jane Brody’s Kitchen.
