When I am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple by Sandra Martz

This enchanting collection of writings and photographs evokes the beauty, humor and courage of women living in their later years and tells of the endearing moments of joy--and passion--to be found in the rich and varied world of midlife and beyond. An award-winning anthology that takes a refreshing look at issues of aging in a society that glorifies youth. Over 1.6 million copies of the anthology have been sold across the United States. This groundbreaking collection was one of the first non-clinical and positive books on women and aging, and was written by older women themselves. It challenged stereotypes and confronted the invisibility of older women in America.

Papier-Mache Publishing was created by Sandra Kay Martz in 1984. Papier-Mache Publishing was noted for releasing easily understandable publications that conveyed major social topics via enduring works of beauty, grace, and strength, and for bridging the gap between the mainstream audience and individuals who might not otherwise be heard. She has produced numerous popular Papier-Mache Press anthologies as an editor and publisher, including If I Had My Life to Live Again, I Would Choose More Daisies and I Am Becoming the Woman I've Wanted, a book that addresses women's powerful thoughts about their bodies.
