Sept. 25, 2017, McLean, VA -- More than 300 greater McLean gathered to watch and discuss a talk by Dr. Atul Gawande, the best-selling author of Being Mortal. Robyn Young, NPR's co-host of Here & Now and Dr. Gawande discussed "The Value of Community and Choice as We Grow Older,” and discussed aging, living life with purpose, and how we can transform the possibilities for the later chapters of everyone’s lives.
