Autorenporträt

Katie H. Williams is a writer who formerly taught classes in cultural and interpersonal communication, rhetoric, and writing at Indiana University and Ivy Tech Community College. She is also Dan's sister who has made, and watched others make, mistakes over the past 43 years that compromised the quality of his life, simply because she, and they, didn't know better. She learned a lot about these mistakes in her post-graduate education, studying communication and its impact on social as well as personal identity and belongingness. Then she learned more in the writing of this book, which she has put into practice with a satisfying degree of success.
