Tara Mayer, Graduate Advisor

Tara Mayer is a writer and editor, specializing in essay and memoir. Her work grapples with queerness, femininity, and mental health through atypical perspectives which serve to hold a mirror to readers like herself, staring down stigmas and approaching questions of identity. If not reading or writing, she can be found listening to David Bowie while smothering her cat with unwanted affection.

ID: Tara smiles, surrounded by plants and faerie lights. She wears an orange long sleeved shirt and black pants. She has light olive skin, curly brown hair with a blond streak over her right eye, brown eyes, and glasses.
