This Week: Meet Tiffany Golden

Tiffany Golden is changing the world, one child at a time. As a children’s author and teaching artist, she specializes in amplifying the voices of 3rd-8th grade youth through creative writing. Originally a film major at the Academy of Art University, Tiffany blended her love for story with a visual medium. Her evolution into community education allowed her to introduce another element into this union—helping others tell their stories. The time and attention she spends with each child helps our future leaders to find their voices and their places in the world. Tiffany is the author of the Midnight Story Series, a children’s fantasy series. From Tiffany:

“It is quite easy as a teacher and caretaker to become exhausted. When I was offered the Judith Tannenbaum Teaching Artist Fellowship through Chapter 510 and the Mesa Refuge, I was in dire need of “alone time” to recharge. During my two weeks of respite, I was able to breathe in clean air, see the sparkling stars at night, write on the deck of my room, and enjoy the company of a wonderful cohort member that I truly hope to stay connected with. I am very grateful to be another writer doing their soul’s work who has had the gift of rest, solitude, and given space to create.”

Join us for a virtual conversation with Tiffany THIS THURSDAY, May 13. She will be in conversation with children’s book author (and Mesa Refuge Alum) Laura Atkins.
