Conversations About Aging: Wayne Newell, 77

Wayne Newell and Diane Atwood

Wayne Newell is a Passamaquoddy Indian Man who was born and raised on the Pleasant Point Indian Reservation in Maine. After getting a master’s degree at Harvard he and his family made their home on the nearby Indian Township Reservation, where he taught until his retirement in 2012. Although struggling with health issues, Wayne’s mind and spirit are going strong. I hope you enjoy and will learn from our conversation. I did.
