Autorenporträt
Amber E. Kinser is Associate Professor of Communication and Director of Women's Studies at East Tennessee State University. Her research and writing interests explore mothering, family interaction, feminist theory, and gender. She currently is writing her next book, Motherhood and Feminism, for Seal Press. She is mother to a daughter and a son. Kryn Freehling-Burton earned her interdisciplinary masters degree in Women Studies and theatre from Oregon State University and has been teaching for the department for the past nine years. She teaches a variety of classes on campus, including 223 and 224, our two introductory courses, Women and Sexuality, Women in the Movies, Gender and Science, and a first-year experience course each fall and was promoted to Senior Instructor in 2014. Though most of her work at OSU is teaching and advising, Kryn is involved in research and creative writing projects focusing on mothering, theatre, activism, and online learning. This research informs her classroom work and she includes popular culture and student-created art projects as important components of learning in all of her classes. Terri Hawkes holds the unique position of being a practicing performing artist as well as a storyteller with a focus on women and youth in culture and the arts. She is respected across Canada and the U.S. for her work as a writer, director and actor in theatre, film, television, and voice work. A seasoned actor in theatre (Calgary to Off-Broadway), Ms. Hawkes is also recognized for her prolific starring roles in television (General Hospital - Soap Opera Award Nominee, Traders - Gemini Award Finalist), countless CBC radio dramas (ACTRA Award nominee), independent films, and numerous title voices in animation, including the iconic heroine, Sailor Moon. Her work as a playwright and screenwriter has garnered accolades (Herman Voaden National Playwriting Award finalist), and her work as a voice director has also led to kudos for her projects (Karmina - Genie Award nomination).
