Bigwood, Joan

A graduate of Smith College, Joan Bigwood has been forming sentences since the early 1960's. Report cards from the Foote School in New Haven, Connecticut consistently pointed out her inability to control forming sentences during class time. Her compulsion to narrate has led to countless stories over many years of conversational deviance, and has produced a script for television, a musical comedy, and her first novel, Co-opted. While Ms. Bigwood is on the brink of national recognition, she is currently best known for her laugh.
