Emily Luchetti is a James Beard Award-winning pastry chef, and Chief Pastry Officer of San Francisco’s Big Night Restaurant Group. She has helped define what great pastry in America means, partly as a cookbook author, and through her three decades in the business of desserts, both as a chef and as a teacher and mentor to chefs and restauranteurs.

Erin McHugh is an award-winning author of more than two dozen books of popular nonfiction, history, inspiration, humor, and children’s books. She is a former publishing industry and advertising executive who start- ed a second career as a bookseller and author in her mid-fifties.

Emily and Erin met in a milestone year, when Emily turned 60, and Erin, 65. Together, they are exploring what it’s like getting older today, where people like themselves prefer rock ’n roll to rocking chairs, and get up every day looking forward to reinvention, not retirement. They’re thinking about smart aging, and they want to spread the word.
