Bio
Patricia A. Nugent is the author of “They Live On: Saying Goodbye to Mom and Dad,” a compilation of vignettes portraying the stages of caring for and saying goodbye to a loved one, as seen through the eyes of a daughter and her terminally ill parents. Her essay, “The Nurses Whispered,” was recently featured in a book published by In Fact Books. Her play about the early suffragists, "The Stone that Started the Ripple," sold out all performances and received a stellar arts review. She has been published numerous times in national professional journals and has received literary awards (including one bestowed by Susan Sontag) for her creative nonfiction essays. Patricia was a teacher and administrator for over 30 years and an adjunct professor at three universities. She currently teaches journaling and creative nonfiction writing classes. She has a master’s degree in communication and rhetoric.
