Description
'I am not old. I have just been here for a long time.' Eileen Kramer has lived the most extraordinary life. Born just after Australia entered World War I, she embraced creativity and adventure from an early age. She danced and painted murals in Karachi; worked as an artist's model in Paris and London; met Ella Fitzgerald and Groucho Marx; and learned the twist from Louis Armstrong. In September 2013, aged ninety-nine, Eileen returned to Australia. Now, at 108, she is still dancing. Eileen has led a bold and vibrant life, and to this day she is surrounded by creativity and friendship. She makes the most of every moment and brings beauty and joy to those around her. Here she shares her inspirational story and wisdom, showing others the gift of the dance of life.
