Tina Sloan-“Guiding Light Soap Legend” and Author of “Changing Shoes”

Changing Shoes, the book, is about staying in the game as you go through life. Diminishment and fading away are turned upside down with funny stories from, Guiding Light, the soap opera she was on for 26 years. Changing Shoesadds levity to the time of life when one can feel overlooked. Tina shows how to stay forever frisky in all areas of life —laughing and admitting her foibles as she goes.

Tina wishes to embody that "je ne sais quoi" mastered by Cleopatra: "Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety."

Her variety has included at various times running marathons, mountain climbing, marriage, mothering, and mastering her fears about aging.

She is enjoying a three and a half decades-long career as a soap star and is still playing Lillian Raines on Guiding Light. She is, at the same time, beginning her new life as an author, playwright, and theatrical actress. Tina wants to teach other women how to become the woman they've always wanted to be.
