Description

Even in my earliest memories, my mother, Nancy Ayers, wore only one color, purple. She soon started coloring her graying hair purple as well. Inspired by Anna Rubin’s Family Stories: Sophie, Sally, I finally persuaded my own mother, when she was 80, to record some of the stories about her life. In the background, the clock marked time at striking moments as she spoke. From the story of purple, to the mischief she got into as a girl, through her romances, children, poetry, involvement in the environmental movement and love of cooking, Live and in Purple weaves a tapestry of her stories in counterpoint, with processing coloring her voice, and with warmth and gratitude for the good times and warm memories...
