About All About My Mother In Law

Welcome to All About My Mother In Law, a series of conversations spanning the last couple of years, where I introduce the world to the now 92-year old Elana Gordon as she shares a lifetime of experiences - the beautiful, harrowing, hysterical, and everything in between.
