In today’s digital media landscape, we are inundated with visual images across an ever-growing list of platforms. Portrayals of older adults often perpetuate ageist stereotypes, such as depicting older adults as frail, technologically inept, or disconnected from the modern world. In this episode of 'Aging Rewired,' our guest Barbara Shipley, AARP’s Senior Vice President of Brand Integration, discusses AARP’s innovative work to reshape the image of aging and challenge traditional media's portrayal of older adults.
