I'm surprised this article didn't include more African Americans. African Americans tend to usually age better than most other ethnic groups. What happened to Oprah Winfrey, Coretta Scott King, Harry Belefonte and Dianne Carroll? Your article listed Sandra Day O'Connor at 75....She looks it!
Gerald Smith
Alexandria, VA

EmmyLou Harris. Beautiful, talented, and willing to still take risks. Her silver hair puts Babs Bush to shame.
Robin
Kenosha, WI

CBS' Mike Wallace at age 87 is a must for your list of Men Aging Gracefully!
Rosalie Dwyer
Aurora IL

Where the heck is Alan Alda? I won't say he'd beat Paul Newman, but he'd give him a run for his money!
Joy Joslyn
Abilene, TX

"Famous faces" whom I think are aging well and from whom I find inspiration are Dame Judi Dench, Diane Keaton, Ohad Naharin, Mikhail Baryshnikov, and Suzanne Farrell.
Teresa Morales
Burbank, California

I can not believe you did not list Jack LaLanne! He not only LOOKS good (at the age of 91), but he is still in phenomenal physical and mental shape. I have always admired the man and what he believes in...apparently, his lifestyle WORKS! Go, Jack!
Kimberly Reilly
Palisades Park, NJ

For all of Dr. Weil's clean, healthly living, I submit Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. The "bad" boys of rock broke all of Dr. Weil's rules and look at them! Whatever they are smoking or snorting, we need to bottle it. Every night they go out there and strut their stuff, they amaze me. If I did 2 hours of that strutting, I would be in the hospital the next day.
Lorraine Bratton
Vinton, Va.

Eunice Shriver-Kennedy should be on the list. To me, grace is a reflection of a person's soul. Ms. ESK has had a a lot of practice with grace and she is luminous in that special way.
Elisabeth
Boulder, Colorado

Talking about people aging gracefully would be incomplete without mentioning the timeless Liz Taylor, the exotic Quincy Jones and the bo-ho chic fashionista Sharon Stone.
Sultan Tam Zimughan
Delta State,Nigeria

I'd vote for "me" -- I am 78 and look pretty good -- no plastic surgery -- just good genes.
Ginny Oitker
Holiday, FL

Lena Horne, the first among equals in this regard.
Kathryn Harris
Scottsdale, AZ

Former President Jimmy Carter. Involved, smart, caring, doing good as much and as fast as he can. A great man.
Jean Quinlan
Owasco, NY

I have to say Cher is looking great for her age. Also, Rachel Welch still looks great as well as Sophia Loren.
Jean Lightner
Columbus,Ohio

Nobody is aging more GRACEFULLY and naturally than N. Mandela, former leader of new South African Republic. He is so natural, graceful and RIGHT about - EVERYTHING
Branislav Sekulic
Sydney, NSW, Australia

The choices that I would add are Tina Turner and Dick Clark.
Deidre Hollock
Bedminster, NJ

My vote for aging well is Tom Brokaw.
Carol J. Hoffman
Atlanta, GA

Barbra Streisand has aged beautifully.
Terri
Hot Springs, Ar

You forgot Paul McCartney - definitely aging well and with grace.
Debbie Gorden
Virginia Beach, VA
