Lois Richter’s format for That’s Life is mostly interviews. Recurring topics include Davis activities and groups; work and life choices; philosophy and theory; plus birding, cooking, art, and other passions. Lois occasionally breaks into music — from ballads to the slack key sounds of Hawaii to golden oldies rock 'n' roll — but mostly there is just talk.

Born in 1957, Diane earned a bachelor’s in biological anthropology from the University of California Los Angeles in 1986 and her doctorate from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque in 2000.
