From 1999-2002 Susan hosted a local access cable T.V. show “Susan Werner At Home” which addressed “Graceful” living in Southern California. It offered a voice to local charities, gave instructions on floral design, table setting, etiquette, and other “Graceful” living tips.  Her most recent t.v. appearance was on “Parents just don’t understand”.  A ten-year-old boy (Cole) switches life with his Mother for the day (including our cotillion).  Have fun watching:
