Judith Levy and her husband have raised three daughters, and

now have five grandchildren. Telling them how their grandparents

met comes easily for Levy; she’s a natural storyteller with a quick

wit and an engaging sense of humor. Blessed with the gift of gab,

Levy was surprised to discover, while attending a memoir-writing

course at Florida Atlantic University some 40 years ago, that not

all grandmothers have family tales tripping off their tongues.

She reports: ＂When I came into the class, the room was loaded

with grandparents who wanted to put their memories down for

their grandchildren. But I could see that they were having trouble

doing it, because they weren’t writers .＂ That realization led to a

best-selling book, Grandmother Remembers: A Written Heirloom

for My Grandchild. The book has spawned a series of related

books . Grandmother Remembers＂ is essentially ＂a baby book

backwards,＂ as Levy puts it. An illustrated album, it has spaces for

photographs, but its pages are mainly filled with writing prompts

to help a grandmother put down her memories on paper for

posterity.

As much as her books are predicated on the importance of writing

down memories, Levy admits that actions are ultimately more

important than words. She advises grandparents to make

memories with their grandchildren by doing things with them.

Judith Levy and her husband, Herb, were named Grandparents of

the year in 2007 for the state of Florida.
