Digging for Roots, In Remembrance of Rebecca Logan

Becky, Debra Shultz and Me at gender seminar, c.1994

I first met Becky Logan in February, 1993, at a five day residential graduate school seminar in Washington, D.C., called The Worker and Her Writing.  It was led by writer and activist Minnie Bruce Pratt and Pat Murphy, a vocational rehabilitation counselor with expertise on questions of women and money, work and violence.  In my evaluation, I wrote "This seminar was probably the best formal learning experience I have ever had.  It was purposefully and thoughtfully designed to create an atmosphere in which profoundly meaningful conversations could take place about our work as women... It was deeply empowering and I formed relationships I expect will last for many years."
