It Ain’t Over…Till It’s Over introduces 60 amazing women who are proving that it’s never too late to live out a dream — to launch a business, travel the world, get a PhD, indulge a creative impulse, make a family recipe famous, escape danger, find love, or fill a void in life with a challenging new experience.

Meet a graphic artist who fulfilled a childhood ambition by going to medical school at 42; a suburban mom whose innovative snack recipe for her daughter’s lunchbox turned into a multi-million-dollar business; a private-practice psychiatrist who convinced her husband that they should quit their jobs and take off on an exciting, open-ended, cross-country adventure — in a giant bus; a middle-aged English teacher who, devastated to discover that her husband was cheating on her, refused to be a victim, filed for divorce and began the challenging journey of rebuilding her life.

Thomas is the author of six bestselling books. She has won four Emmys, a Golden Globe, a Grammy and the Peabody Award, and has been inducted into the Broadcasting Hall of Fame. She lives in New York with her husband, Phil Donahue.
