- Description:
- Born in Madison County, Fla., Charlee Lambert started her career as a playwright, director and advocate for the elderly at age 62. For two decades, her production company produced her plays nationally, to educate professionals and the public about elder abuse, domestic violence, and the changing shape of families, promoting dialogue about the realities of these complex issues. She was the co-founder of Georgia's Council on Elderly Abuse and Neglect and managed its Victim Assistance Line through the Atlanta Legal Aid Society. She has served as an expert witness in elder abuse cases and served as a consultant on elder abuse. At present, Charlee is on the Board of Advisors for the Fuqua Center for Late Life Depression.
This is one of two interviews that took place at the Atlanta residence of Charlee Lambert. Ms. Lambert discusses her personal background and how it contributed to her involvement with the Georgia Council on Elder Abuse and Neglect, and the AARP Reminisces, which developed out of her position of Legal Aid Services. - Metadata URL:
