Author Anna Boorstin knows that grief does not follow a single path.

Anna lost her father when she was just 11. Years later, she lost her stepfather, acclaimed filmmaker Alan J. Pakula, suddenly and unexpectedly. Then she faced loss again when her longtime partner became seriously ill—this time with the painful gift of knowing what was coming and having the opportunity to say goodbye.


Three men she loved. Three very painful losses.


In this excerpt from a podcast conversation with host Ruby Tugade, Anna talks candidly about what those experiences taught her about grief, love, saying goodbye—and the things we never simply “get over.”


Listen to this excerpt as Anna shares her story in her own words.



Listen to the entire episode with Ruby Tugade, host of “Women Living the Questions”, a podcast series exploring the lives of extraordinary Yale women 60 and beyond. The show reflects Ruby's passion for topics in legacy, and the power of storytelling across generations. Meet host Ruby Tugade: Instagram
