Bio for media:
Patricia Zaballos is a writer, former third-grade teacher, and veteran homeschooling parent from Oakland. Forever obsessed with how people learn, her essays on the subject have appeared in Salon, Literary Mama, Mothering Magazine, and in a column at home/school/life magazine. She’s at work on a mashup of memoir and cultural history exploring how much independence and creativity children have lost in the last three decades—and how, as a mother, she pushed back against that culture while also, unwittingly, being shaped by it.
