Welcome to the home of the Talking ‘Bout My Generation: The Baby Boom Experience network start page.
The Baby Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) were the first true pop culture generation, and, as such paved the way for our contemporary world.
Talking ’Bout My Generation explores that story through four lenses:
- Reflections of a Baby Boomer – My take on the music, moments, and meaning of the Boomer era.
- The 1st Pop Culture Generation – How toys, TV, movies, books, and consumer culture shaped the values of the Baby Boomers
- The Music of the Woodstock Generation – Songs as political and cultural flashpoints of the 50s, 60s, 70s, and early 80s.
- Beyond the Box Score — Sports as a mirror of American culture and conflict
Please consider this your invitation to be part of the Baby Boomer story. Explore the moments that shaped us. Revisit the music, the movements, and the myths. Question what we got right and what we didn’t. Share your own experiences, your own reflections, your own voice
For whether you lived it, studied it, or are just trying to make sense of it, there’s definitely a place for you here at Talking ‘Bout My Generation: The Baby Boom Experience network.
