Amy Dickinson, syndicated columnist of “Ask Amy”, shared her wisdom at McMorran Place during this month’s Port Huron Town Hall speaker event. Dickinson’s warm and friendly personality lit up the room in her first appearance since the pandemic.
In an interview with WGRT, Dickinson shared, “This is my first trip! I mean, I put on mascara for the first time I think in two years. Honestly, it’s ten in the morning and I’m acting like I’m on spring break because I’m away and feeling good and just hearing the sound of the audience in the background is really a thrill for me.”
As Anne Landers’ successor, Dickinson shares her advice in over 150 newspapers around the U.S.
“After two years of tackling unsolvable pandemic problems…I knew that the pandemic was on the wane or taking a pause or something when just last week I started getting stupid questions again,” said Dickinson.
Amy Dickinson is also the bestselling author of two memoirs, Strangers Tend to Tell Me Things: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Coming Home, and The Mighty Queens of Freeville: A Mother, A Daughter, and the Town That Raised Them.
The personal stories she shared during her Port Huron Town Hall presentation were drawn largely from her experience being raised by strong women and paying close attention to the lessons life has taught her through her own struggles.
