Part three of our 5-part Life and Death Decisions Zoom Lecture Series.
What is Writing Life Stories (memoir writing)?
Barbara has a business in which she teaches non-writers how to leave a legacy for their families and discover more about who they are. Barbara uses a guided method that was taught for over 30 years that helps people write quickly and easily. Students share their work with a supportive group and really enjoy the process. Medical and psychological journals reveal evidence of the proven benefits of this methodology.
About Barbara Field
Barbara is a dynamic speaker and instructor. She has given presentations at museums, universities and libraries in NY, CA and FL (from Lawrence Family JCC, the Walt Whitman Birthplace Museum, and Sarasota County Libraries) to Baruch College (Business School Donor Luncheon) and The Women’s Museum. She recently gave a presentation to Barnard Alumnae via Zoom in which 300 attended.
Barbara was formerly on staff at CBS, Harcourt Brace, UC San Diego and Pace University. She has freelanced for Microsoft and other clients, and has been published widely in newspapers and magazines. She was a women’s empowerment leader who gave keynote speeches to corporations and at conferences. She also mentored for the Afghan Women’s Writing Project and was Regional Manager at The OpEd Project, which amplified women and minority voices. Barbara graduated from Barnard College-Columbia University.
