About Me
- Barbara Trachtenberg
- Newton, MA, United States
- I'm a traveling street photographer and writer. 30 years as teacher and school psychologist, and longer than that, as a mother, have fed my writing. I lead writing workshops—for prisoners through PEN-NE, immigrants and literacy teachers, seniors and students at local universities. I learned my Spanish from students and combi drivers. My best writing experience was at MacDowell Colony. My writing has appeared at Boston City Hall, in Words and Images, Multicultural Review, ArtsEditor, Latin American Anthropology Review, and The NewEnglander. My earliest writing—a young hitchhiker’s travel memoir set in early 60s Europe—was pushed by my drive to meet Hungarian relatives. I'm a member of PEN New England and past member of Boston’s Writers’ Room. My memoir-in-progress of my mother's life in 1938, connects to my first trip to Hungary. My doctorate in literacy, language and cultural studies and degrees in counseling psychology, English and special education influence my short stories. But my favorite nonfiction characters are Ari, Dov and Noa, my sons and granddaughter.
