    About Our Guests

    Rebecca Christian is a freelance writer who splits her time between Iowa and Toronto. Her work includes plays, books, poems, magazine articles, newspaper op-eds and articles, and a regular newspaper column for the Telegraph Herald in Dubuque for the last 35 years. She considers her best work to be silly stories and songs she has written for her friends, three children, seven grandchildren, three stepchildren and four stepgrands. She has Early Alzheimer's and is burning the candle brightly before the flame flickers out.

    Kate Thompson is a neurodiversity consultant who has worked with a variety of businesses, including libraries and public health organizations, to improve the environment for all employees. She was a member Iowa’s Olmstead Consumer Services Taskforce, which helps enforce the American’s with Disabilities Act (ADA), an adjunct faculty member at Des Moines Area Community College, and a contributor to the American Library Association’s book “Library Programming for Autistic Children and Teens.”
