Acerca del autor

Anna Redsand shares many characteristics of other Adult Third Culture Kids (ATCKs), having spent most of her developmental years in a culture other than that of her parents. Perhaps the most notable of those traits is restlessness; she has moved seventy-one times, lived in three countries on as many continents, in all four hemispheres, and in eighteen US communities. She has also enjoyed living on the road. Life between postcolonial Diné (Navajo) and White cultures has deeply influenced her writing.Anna's previous memoir, To Drink from the Silver Cup, explores the intersectionality of religion, spirituality, and sexuality in her life. Her first book, Viktor Frankl: A Life Worth Living, is a biography of the Holocaust survivor and author of Man's Search for Meaning. Her essays, poems and stories have been published in Solstice, DoveTales, Isthmus, Clockhouse, Fireweed, Rockhurst Review, Mount Hope Magazine, Spaces, Friends Journal, and Gallup Journey. They have also been anthologized in Wet and Fertile. Her essay "Naturalization" was notable in Best American Essays 2014. Most recently she co-authored an article in the monograph, Honoring Our Indigenous Languages and Cultures. Diné readers of her work have said her voice is both important and essential.Today, Anna works as a writer, a Danish-to-English translator, and an editor. She has worked as a linguist, educator, psychotherapist, hospice caregiver, operating room technician, housecleaner, and supermarket cashier. She enjoys travel, hiking, and engaging with other readers. She also makes fiber art and paper collages. She lives far from her Southwest home in the Danish Village of Elk Horn, Iowa, to be near her daughter and grandchildren but gets back to Navajo Country as often as possible. Anna identifies as a cisgender lesbian.
