She is Associate Professor in the Graduate Division of Human Services, College of New Rochelle. Terry Tirrito holds a Ph.D. in Gerontology from Fordham University.

Klappentext Aging Education provides educators in aging studies with a unique text that responds to the paucity of instructional strategies and teaching materials. By developing and explaining a multidisciplinary approach to working with older adults in areas related to health, education, ethics, law, cultural competency for a multicultural population, translating social policy into practice, spirituality, and human services, the editors provide an imaginative and thought-provoking unmet need for gerontology educators by providing them with teaching and practice strategies in aging education.
