Henrietta Hay Directory

Henrietta Hay is a (formerly sports-car-driving) liberal in a conservative town. In Grand Junction, Colorado, she has been writing a weekly column for the local Daily Sentinel for more than twenty years, now. In spite of (or because of?) her often renegade views, her column is the most popular feature in the paper.

Sadly, she died in her sleep on July 25, 2020. She was 106 years old!

Henrietta's columns fall approximately into these categories:

This Issue's Column

Remembering the Twentieth Century

Colorado

Language and Literature

The Modern World

Life at Home

The Latest Mysteries

Nostalgia

People of Interest

Politics in General

Women's Issues
