Episode 15: Interview with Wendy Chin-Tanner

Wendy Chin-Tanner, author of the poetry collections Turn (a finalist for

the Oregon Book Awards) and Anyone Will Tell You (both from Sibling Rivalry

Press), as well as co-author of the graphic novel American Terrorist (A

Wave Blue World), is the mother of two daughters, married to a graphic

novelist, co-founder of A Wave Blue World, and the proud daughter of

immigrants. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY and educated at Cambridge, she

talks with us about how racism kept her from writing for a decade and

motherhood brought her back. If ever there was an artist who was able to

talk with deep eloquence and insight about the necessity of a creative life

when you are a mother, it is Wendy.
