Nation’s First Baby Boomer Turns 65 On New Years Day
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – The nation’s first baby boomer, who was born in Philadelphia and grew up in South Jersey, is turning 65 after midnight.
Kathleen Casey-Kirschling, a retired teacher, now lives in Maryland. Spend an afternoon with Kirschling and you’ll quickly learn she’s first and foremost a proud grandmother. But born just a second after midnight on New Year’s Day 1946 gave her a title she’s learned to embrace, the country’s first baby boomer.
“We were just the best of generations,” Kirschling said.
