Maureen P. Keeley, PH.D.
Maureen Keeley and Julie Yingling bring a combined 65 years of experience in teaching, research, and writing about communication. Julie earned her Ph.D. in 1981, and Maureen received hers in 1994. They met at the University of Iowa, where Maureen was completing her doctorate and Julie was a visiting professor.
In 2002, they identified a gap in scientific research concerning how people interact and communicate when one individual is dying. Maureen initiated this exploration, approaching Julie to investigate this area further. Together, they authored Final Conversations: Helping the Living and the Dying Talk to Each Other, which was published in 2007.
