At 60 years old, author Anne Abel did something completely out of character – she flew halfway across the world by herself to follow Bruce Springsteen’s tour in Australia. Eight concerts. Five cities.
Twenty-six days. No guidebook, no plan. Just a desperate hope that his music might save her life. This story is the heart of her new memoir, "High Hopes," released on Springsteen’s birthday, Sept. 23.
In this interview, Anne talks about seeing her first Springsteen concert and the powerful impact it had. She shares what led to her following Springsteen on tour and her experiences at the different shows—even meeting the artist at one point!
Anne talks about her decision to write a memoir about these experiences and the process of putting it all together, as well as the hopeful messages contained within.
