Dad’s Secret Life of Matchmaking
Audio documentary, 10.5 mins
The true story of how my father and mother met, which was kept secret from my four siblings and I until we were in our thirties. It’s a story about my dad’s deep yearning for connection, and the strange way he went about finding it. It’s also about the connection that emerges when a parent reveals a more honest accounting of who they are.
