As the Vietnam War and the human rights movements expanded her frames of reference, her academic focus shifted and settled in women’s studies, planting a personal interest in writing biography as a way to rectify history’s sins of omission and give our silenced stories a voice.
Committed to sharing her expertise with lifelong learning communities, she has offered her life-writing workshops at the Iowa Writing Festival, the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, CA, the Campbell Folk School in North Carolina, the Center for Independent Living in Memphis, and elsewhere.
No Silent Witness, Tucker’s fifth book, received the 2010 Melcher Book Award for its outstanding contribution to religious liberalism.view less
