Meredith HALL '67 recently appeared on an episode of Safe Space Radio to talk about her book "Without a Map: A Memoir." In both the interview and in the book she spoke about her teen pregnancy--and how Mrs. Emmet, founder of High Mowing, accepted her to the school after the child was born. Meredith said that Mrs. Emmet "saved her life" by creating a refuge from the stigma and the shunning that had followed her since her pregnancy became known. Spending her senior year at High Mowing, which she described as "idyllic," allowed her to recover and to chart a new course for her life.
Listen to the interview here, and buy her book here.
Meredith Hall is now a professor of writing at University of New Hampshire. Her work has been published in TheNew York Times, Creative Nonfiction, The Southern Review, Five Points, Prairie Schooner, and several anthologies.
