essayist Betsy Buchalter Adler and OllieEach week, we’ll hear a new This I Believe essay – this time from Betsy Buchalter Adler. When she gets too absorbed by her legal work, her dog, Ollie, reminds her of what’s truly important: a good, long walk outdoors. Adler believes Ollie helps her live in the moment and embrace the small, unexpected delights in the world. Adler is a writer, a birder, a philanthropic adviser, and a lawyer for nonprofit organizations and their donors. She lives with her husband of 42 years and their dog, Ollie, a short-haired collie, in northern California and Manhattan. Adler’s essay is featured in the book, This I Believe: Life Lessons.
