UNIVERSITY o Feb. 16, 2004 Contact: Teri Rizvi [email protected] DAYTON NEWS RELEASE HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERMA! ERMA BOMBECK'S "GOOD MORNING AMERICA" SEGMENTS NOW ONLINE DAYTON, Ohio -The University of Dayton's National Alumni Association will add 13 of Erma Bombeck's "Good Morning America" segments to its popular online Erma Bombeck Online Museum (www.ErmaMuseum.org). Erma Bombeck would have celebrated her 77th birthday on Feb. 21, but the gift of her humor lives on because of an online museum created by the University of Dayton with the Bombeck family. Bombeck graduated from UD in 1949. Her syndicated column was carried by 700 newspapers prior to her death of kidney disease in 1996. "Each year on Erma's birthday we add items to the Erma Bombeck Online Museum," said Tim Bete, humor columnist and museum curator. "It's our way of honoring Erma and giving her millions of fans something to help remember her. This year we've added 13 of Erma's 'Good Morning America' segments." Bombeck entertained "Good Morning America" viewers from 1975 to 1986 with three- minute bits of her zany twist on life. Eventually, she produced longer interviews with celebrities, including ZsaZsa Gabor (whom she interviewed in ZsaZsa's king-size bed) and comedienne Phyllis Diller. Bombeck was one of the original members of the GMA cast, which included David Hartman, Rona Barrett, Jonathan Winters and Geraldo Rivera. The 13 video clips in the online museum feature Erma discussing picky eaters, trying her hand at the slippery sport of curling and explaining why people think they are younger than they actually are. Erma also tests some of the most innovative - and strange - chairs on the OFFICE OF Pui3f?i6E1tELATIONS 300 College Park Dayton, Ohio 45469-1679 (937) 229-3241 (937) 229-3063 Fax www. udayton.edu market and laments the revenge of the Thanksgiving turkey. In one of her most popular segments, Bombeck describes what she would do differently if she had her life to live over. The newspaper column, on which the TV segment was based, was recently turned into the book Eat less cottage cheese and more ice cream (2003, Andrews McMeel Publishing). After 11 years of simultaneously appearing on GMA, writing newspaper columns and best-selling books, producing and writing a television sitcom and raising her children, Bombeck decided to leave the show. Twice each week, for more than a decade, she helped millions of viewers start their day. The Erma Bombeck online museum was launched in February 2002. The museum includes audio and video clips of Erma's family and friends, such as Phil Donahue, Bil Keane, Mike Peters and Liz Carpenter. The museum also contains rare columns and photos, Erma's biography and seven complete episodes of the "Maggie" sitcom Erma wrote and executive produced. Erma Bombeck graduated from the University of Dayton in 1949 with a degree in English and never forgot that she got her start as a writer at UD. She credited the University of Dayton with preparing her for life and work, for making her believe she could write. The University of Dayton holds the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop (www.HumorWriters.org) every other year to teach and encourage humor and human interest writers. The next workshop will be March 25-27, 2004. It's sold out. "Erma's impact and legacy are as strong as ever," Bete said. "And, the new additions to the online museum make it an even better place to take a break, remember Erma and laugh."

What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that’s better. —George E. Woodberry The best place to be when you’re sad is Grandpa’s lap —seniorresource.com As I grew older I thought the best part of my life was over. Then I was handed my first grandchild and realized…the best part of my life had just begun. —T-Shirt Slogan The years between 50 and 70 are the hardest. You are always being asked to do things and yet are not decrepit enough to turn them down. —T. S. Eliot My first grandchild, Jordan, was born on January 30, 2011. I was jolted, blindsided by a wallop of loving more intense than anything I could remember or had ever imagined….This is what I didn’t expect. I was at a time in my life where I’d assumed I had already had my best day, my tallest high. But now I was overwhelmed with euphoria. Why was she hitting with such a force? What explains this joy, this grandmother elation that is a new kind of love? —Lesley Stahl You take all the experience and judgement of men over 50 out of the world and there wouldn’t be enough left to run it. —Henry Ford Don’t cry over the past, it’s gone.

Introduction The strength of women in our society has been the ever-present, but the often quiet engine that kept the country progressing -- from Revolutionary War nurses to pioneer women to the much-needed factory workers during World Wars I and II. This book will introduce you to the not-so-quiet women who chose to step up and lead the way to create a legacy of organizations and ideas that still benefit the greater Miami Valley community and your lives to this day. It’s important to understand that these women lived in a time when very few had more than high school education, did not work outside the home, and until 1920, could not even vote.
