About

diana-avabw1Diana Whitney is a freelance writer, yoga teacher and mother of two in Brattleboro, Vermont.  In February 2009, Diana emerged from The Baby Cave and started writing Spilt Milk, a bi-monthly parenting column in The Brattleboro Reformer and The Rutland Herald.  She’s now a commentator for Vermont Public Radio.

In case four years of sleep deprivation and Bunny Noodles don’t qualify one to write a parenting column, Diana also has a Masters in English Language and Literature from Oxford University, where she was a Rhodes Scholar.  She later studied poetry at the MFA Program for Writers at Warren-Wilson College and attended writing residencies at the Vermont Studio Center and the Banff Centre for the Arts.

Her prose and poetry have been published in The Boston Globe, Pilates Style, Dartmouth Alumni Magazine, Vermont Sports, and The Crab Orchard Review, among other journals.  Her work appears online at WashingtonPost.com,  FasterSkier.com, Mothering.com, and of course, this blog.
