About Linda

L'Anne is women's historian who works extensively with the history of women's bodies. She has two crazy dogs, one cat who refuses to leave the basement, and a fantastic husband. When she isn't teaching, reading, writing, or sewing, she drinks wine, cooks semi-gourmet meals, works out, mocks bad TV, and tends her organic garden.
