Grieving Your Friends in a Pandemic | Victoria Noe
On the Share Your Story podcast today I have with me Victoria Noe, an award-winning author, speaker and activist. Her Friend Grief series - the result of a promise she made to a dying friend - recognizes the importance of friendships in shaping our lives. Noe’s long-time HIV/AIDS activism led her to write Fag Hags, Divas and Moms: The Legacy of Straight Women in the AIDS Community, the groundbreaking book that honors the women who changed the course of the epidemic.
An accomplished public speaker, she has presented at organizations such as ACT UP/London, Mt. Sinai Hospital, the Muse and the Marketplace, BookExpo America, and Open Hand/San Francisco as well as libraries and bookstores in New York and the Midwest. During the pandemic she has led workshops and online writing groups focusing on friend grief. Noe’s newest book, What Our Friends Left Behind: Grief and Laughter in a Pandemic about people who have lost a friend during the pandemic, was recently published in June, 2023.
Her website is the best place to find her: victorianoe.com. You will find her books are all there, as well as social media links - Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn - and you can sign up for her monthly newsletter as well to keep up to date.
