In this heartfelt conversation, Teresa Norton and Dr. Theresa Robbins Dudeck, discuss a column Teresa Norton wrote in the 1990's about her mother who, decades later developed Alzheimers.
The two T(h)eresas reflect on their mothers' influences, the emotional impact of caregiving, and the importance of cherishing memories while navigating the challenges of dementia. The discussion highlights the significance of storytelling, laughter, and the arts in maintaining connections with loved ones, especially in difficult times.
Dr. Robbins Dudeck is an Assistant Professor of Theater at Portland State University, a Fulbright Scholar, and an expert in improvisation who trained worked with impro pioneer Keith Johnstone and wrote his critically acclaimed biography.
Theresa Robbins Dudeck and Caitlin McClure compiled two books on applied improvisation, one of which Teresa Norton contributed a chapter on her work as a leadership coach.
