UCF MFA Creative Writing Program Presents Susanna Sonnenberg in partnership with the Atlantic Center for the Arts.

Wednesday, February 22, 2023 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Susanna Sonnenberg will provide a craft talk and Q&A. She is the author of the New York Times best-selling memoirs Her Last Death and She Matters: A Life in Friendships.

Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times described Her Last Death as a "fiercely observed, fluently written book that captures the chaos and confusions of [Sonnenberg's] youth" in "sharp, crystalline prose." The New York Times review of She Matters said that Sonnenberg "demonstrates a self-awareness that is clearly hard-earned" and that the "determination to learn from the women who are close to her, to investigate where she failed and where they did, is what gives the book such resonance." Her essays and criticism have also been widely published in a variety of magazines and newspapers. 

Since 1993 she has lived in Missoula, Montana, where she teaches online writing workshops
