Meet Our Creative Advisory Council

Hedgebrook’s Creative Advisory Council is a group of influential women writers who embody the spirit of Hedgebrook, characterized by a commitment to champion women’s voices. Launched in 2006 by Hedgebrook alumna Gloria Steinem, the Council functions as ambassadors and brain trust, working with Hedgebrook staff, Board and alumnae to raise Hedgebrook’s visibility and impact in the world. Throughout their careers, these exemplary writers manifest our motto of “women authoring change” by penning groundbreaking work, challenging us to think outside the box and opening our minds and hearts to new ways of being in the world.
