Millennials on Marriage, Work and Family Guests: Jennifer Sabatini Fraone, Associate Director of the Boston College Center for Work and Family; Emily Zuehlke, Consultant with The Advisory Board; Brian Willoughby, PhD, Assistant Professor in the School of Family Life at BYU Anyone between 19 and 35 years of age today fits into the millennial generation, also known as “Y.” They are officially the largest living generation in America, barely edging out the baby boomers.
