In this installment of StoryCorps Tampa Bay, Robinson Sterling talks with her friend, Theresa Rush Richardson about her memoir. Sterling has lived in various places around the world including Mexico and Israel. She’s had many adventures in life, but writing her own memoir has been its own kind of venture.

Getting her memoir published and getting a degree were the last couple of items on Sterling’s bucketlist. Sterling completed her Master’s degree in social work at the age of 60. She's still waiting to get published.

Music:

“Bittersweet Symphony” by The Verve from the album, Urban Hymns.
