Linda Katz first discovered the wider world as a graduate student at the University of Michigan in the 1960s. This led her to
Mississippi civil rights work and to a lifelong investment in social justice and progressive politics. She enjoyed a long career in child welfare as a clinician, administrator, advocate and teacher, developing innovations to make adult systems better serve our most vulnerable children, the abused and the poor. She has always been a poet. She is the author of many articles in professional social service journals, as well as poems in literary magazines.
