Hello friends! I am so pleased to share with you today my conversation with Jennifer Flitton Adams. As the associate professor of costume design, she is celebrating her 25th year anniversary of teaching at Shenandoah University! In this episode we talk about SO much: graduate school, costume pedagogy, diversity, inclusivity and body positivity. I really admire her ability to speak up and have difficult conversations as well as her commitment to amplifying the many diverse voices that make up our community of artists. And, she recently wrote a book! Be sure to check out: Teaching Costume Design and Costume Rendering: A Guide for Theatre and Performance Educators. Here's the link for her book: https://www.amazon.com/Teaching-Costume-Design-Rendering-Performance/dp/0367608413/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.drLhav0t5O7CerKteQitbwPvJIS2vvHarLyG--duhzZnrNgKE98YhX6c5UHDgenn_EGZUd1iwR_BRhp6qB5-aNwtXqFLKmknuDWpqpLAw7EC9asAfDuzIKx4w6AlsOMJv6TEPV5c1w6IVj1uZI1naz08KqyKek2O-QdaSvNNbxli7QKaQ4In8OzD5UjlWmCYSVoqQZPtehyu05eobddX3QuqowN1RTJG6a30x3onXj8.PEG-HNpuujo_Z-h_lgBwoHY87d-XL5tMbSzoZ3XkdWw&dib_tag=se&keywords=teaching+costume+design+and+costume+rendering&qid=1712342161&sr=8-1 Thank you so much for listening and continuing to support the podcast!
