Description

Catherine is here today with Rebekah Taussig. Rebekah Taussig is a Kansas City writer and teacher with her doctorate in Creative Nonfiction and Disability Studies.

She has led workshops and presented at the University of Michigan, the University of Kansas, and Davidson College on disability representation, identity, and community.

Her work appears in publications from TIME and The Florida Review to Design Sponge and Good Company. Released by HarperOne in August 2020, her memoir in essays, Sitting Pretty: The View from My Ordinary Resilient Disabled Body provides a nuanced portrait of a body that looks and moves differently than most.

She also runs the Instagram platform @sitting_pretty, where she crafts “mini-memoirs” to contribute nuance to the collective narratives being told about disability. She lives in a tiny, old house with her fussy family of tenderhearted snugglers.
