Description

Today we're talking about beloved American author Louisa May Alcott, best known as the author of Little Women. Joining me to discuss Alcott's life and career is Dr. Alice Rutkowski, Chair and Associate Professor of English at SUNY Geneseo.
Our discussion today will look at Alcott's life through a queer, trans lens, which Alice has written about in academic articles.
