Autorenporträt
Maria Dintino has work-ed in higher education for thirty years, the first twenty-three at Keene State College in Keene, New Hampshire, as an educational counselor and instructor of first-year writing, and the past six years in the library at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida. Maria is co-founder and writer for the Nasty Women Writers project, where she and her sister Theresa highlight women whose voices have been sidelined and erased from the fabric of our collective experience. Nasty Women Writers resists this shut down on powerful women's voices and claims #nasty as a stance of power, not the put-down often intended. Visit their website: nastywomenwriters.com.Currently, Maria lives in St. Augustine, Florida, yet makes trips north whenever possible to visit family, friends, and especially her grandson, Jaxson.
