Laura Brodie Biography

Laura Brodie is an author, professor, and mother of three daughters. Her recent memoir, One Good Year: A Mother and Daughter's Educational Adventure (formerly titled Love in a Time of Homeschooling: A Mother and Daughter's Uncommon Year) (Harper), discusses public education and its discontents, and describes the emotional ups and downs of nine months when she gave her 10-year-old daughter a break from her public school routine.

After graduating from Harvard University, Brodie completed a PhD in English at the University of Virginia, winning a Dissertation Fellowship from the American Association of University Women and a Woodrow Wilson Women's Studies Grant to explore the portrayal of widows in English literature. This dissertation would eventually form the basis for her first novel, The Widow's Season, which won the 2005 Faulkner-Wisdom prize for best novel-in-progress.

Her first book, Breaking Out: VMI and the Coming of Women, was featured in the Washington Post and on the Dianne Rehm Show. The book covered the transition to coeducation at America's last all-male military institute.
