Tammy Oler ("Of Woman Borg") is a Western girl with professional wanderlust. She’s pursued her doctorate in literature and feminist theory at UC–Berkeley, worked as a mutual-fund broker and advertising account executive, and most recently has been engaged in nonprofit management. This past year, she retired from the Denver Roller Dolls, a nonprofit women’s roller derby league she cofounded in 2005. She recently traded her car, snowboard, and Colorado digs for a Brooklyn apartment, where she works as a freelance writer and business management consultant. A frequent contributor to Bitch, her work has also appeared in Girl Culture: An Encyclopedia and the forthcoming companion volume Boy Culture, as well as in a variety of online publications and culture blogs.
Meg Hunt (Illustrator, "Mad Science") is a 24-year-old jill-of-all-trades, but currently works as an illustrator and cartoonist. Her work is influenced by old children’s books, sci-fi, architecture, wartime propaganda posters, horror stories, toys, travel, myths/legends, and strange conversations. Her world is inhabited by strange monsters, secret meetings, people in disguises, and inconceivable surroundings—a utopia of the charmingly weird. See more of her work at www.meghunt.com.
Tania Hammidi ("Canonizing Ani") is a freelance writer and doctoral student at the UC–Riverside, studying dance and costume theory. Her writing has been published in Curve, the L.A. Times, Tulsa Studies for Women’s Literature (in which she and a friend wrote about mullets), the anthologies Femme: Feminists, Lesbians and Bad Girls and Lesbians, Levi’s and Lipstick: The Meaning of Beauty in Our Lives, and the art journal LTTR. Her hopes for the future include writing biographies and continuing to stir up artistic and political resistance.
Jaclyn Friedman ("Whack Attack")is a queer Jewish writer, performer, activist, and technophile. By day, she is the Program Director for the Center for New Words, where she produces more than 50 feminist events per year, including WAM!, CNW’s annual conference on women, action, and the media. By night she surfs the interwebs, composes love poems to her TiVo, and performs and agitates with Big Moves, a national size-diverse dance and performance troupe. Her first book, Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World Without Rape (co-edited with feministing.com’s Jessica Valenti) is due out in January 2009 from Seal Press.
