Photo of the World oldest living person

Susannah Mushatt Jones on June 17, became the world’s oldest living person upon the death of Jeralean Talley, who had six weeks on her. She is 116-Year-Old woman from Brooklyn. 
She is fragile, no question about it. Sleeps a lot, can’t hear well. But she still loves her bacon — four strips, every morning, eaten with gusto. Has a pretty good appetite, in fact. Chews Doublemint gum. Her hair, long since turned white, has come in brown again. She voted for Barack Obama, twice. (A birthday letter from him hangs on her wall). And next fall, Susannah Mushatt Jones will perhaps get to vote for a woman as well. Whoever’s elected would be her 21st ­president.
