<p>Elissa Yancey, MSEd, is an award-winning journalist, educator and non-profit leader who has spent more than three decades listening to, writing about and sharing people’s stories. She has co-founded two story-driven non-profits—WordPlay Cincy and A Picture’s Worth, the latter of which connects individuals and communities via audio stories and in-person installations. After commisserating with and advising dozens of other adult children managing new roles as caregivers, she decided to share her own experiences and specific tips in writing in hopes they might comfort, support and inspire others on similar journeys.<br/>

Her next book will focus on the adventures of Annette and E. Lucy Braun, pioneering women field scientists and environmental activists who were the first and third women to earn PhDs at the University of Cincinnati, Elissa's undergraduate alma mater.</p>
