Miami, FL – December 6, 2024 — Wisdom of the Century is more than a coffee table book; it’s a touching tribute to 90 remarkable nonagenarians and centenarians who have shaped Florida’s rich cultural land scape. Through compelling stories, breathtaking photography, and aesthetic design, the wisdom, experiences, and legacies of these extraordinary individuals are captured.
The book goes beyond preserving memories; it encapsulates a generation that’s endured some of history’s most challenging events, including world wars, pandemics, economic upheavals, and unprecedented technological advances. In their own words, these elders share stories of survival, perseverance, immigration, love, and the lessons they’ve learned through a lifetime of change and resilience.
Behind this project is a passionate team, and together, they’ve created a visually stunning, deeply moving book that immortalizes the stories of a generation, offering inspiration and insight for future generations:
• Sandra Coiffman, Founder
- Jenny Menzel, Graphic designer
- Merle R. Saferstein, Author
- Pipe Yanguas, Photographer
Wisdom of the Century aims to immortalize the inspiring experiences of its subjects, becoming a source of learning for future generations. It celebrates life, resilience, and the shared human experience, emphasizing the importance of remembering and honoring our elders’ contributions.
