KGB Nonfiction presents Mama, PhD: Women Write About Motherhood and Academic Life
October 21, 2008
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
“All those sleepless nights and dirty diapers and baby food in your hair - where’s the discursive construction of motherhood when you need it?”
--Catherine Newman
Higher Education could be an enormously family-friendly environment, a model for other workplaces, but the academy is failing, and women are leaving. Join contributors to Mama, PhD in a reading and conversation about the challenges and joys of trying to reconcile body and brain as they navigate academic careers.
Editors Elrena Evans and Caroline Grant along with contributor Susan O’Doherty (author of “Getting Unstuck without Getting Unglued"), among others.
