There is no doubt that 77-year-old Darla Shaw is an eccentric... and she is proud of that label. When she is not teaching as a full-time college professor, she may be playing her kazoo or steel drums... or attending her belly dancing class, or teaching Alzheimer awareness to middle-school students, or traveling to Bhutan to help underprivileged kids... and these are just a few of her weekly activities... the list goes on! Her endless energy, desire to learn new things and share this knowledge with others is an inspiration to anyone one at any age!
