Join LA County Librarian, Skye Patrick, in a conversation with Beverly Mahone, aka Auntie Bev the Vocabulary Builder, that promises to be compelling, illuminating-- and maybe a little bit trenchant.

A former journalist and media consultant, Auntie Bev uses her social media channels to introduce new and fascinating words to her audience. Skye and Auntie Bev will be exploring why growing your vocabulary -- and using it correctly! -- are important skills, how to become a more confident communicator, and what it means to be truly heard and understood. Will it be a little sesquipedalian? Probably.

Beverly Mahone, also known as “Auntie Bev” to nearly 2.5 million followers across all social media platforms, is a veteran journalist who spent more than 40 years in radio and television news. She has worked as a radio news anchor, talk show host, television reporter, videographer, and as an Assignment Editor. After leaving the business in 2006, she decided to create a media marketing consulting business where she coached baby boomer women on how to market and promote themselves for media exposure via creating videos.

She currently works as a part-time Writing Consultant at a University in North Carolina and hosts online public speaking and writing sessions on YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook. She has written for or been covered by HuffPost50, Forbes.com, and U.S. News & World Report. Her video podcast, The Boomer Beat, airs on YouTube.
