Happy Birthday to the wonderful Mary Catherine Bateson! You keep composing lives and inspiring minds, proving repeatedly that wisdom truly gets better—and funnier—with age. It's clear your journey isn't just 'full circle'; it's delightfully overlapping with endless laughter and timeless insights.From "Composing a Life" to showing us how active wisdom thrives in your tenth publication,"Composing a Further Life", you've woven narrative threads we all cherish deeply. Keep laughing, learning, and writing—because honestly, who else could craft anthropology into life's best comedy? Cheers to you on another fantastic trip around our cultural universe—you anthropological rock star!
