Motherhood.             
Communication & Gender.  
Families, Feminism.

Amber Kinser is a writer, speaker, mother, and professor.  Kinser draws on feminist thought and activism, her doctoral training in family communication, and 18+ years experience as a mother to explore how women who choose to mother can do so as powerful people.  She agrees with celebrated author Ann Crittenden that attention to mothering is the great unfinished business of feminism.  She intends to get all up in that business.

Her weekly blog, "Thursdays with Dr. Mama," has been featured at the Museum of Motherhood and is accessible from this site.  Her weekly posts (currently on hiatus so she can focus on her grant research about family meals) also has been  featured at Mamapalooza, Mamazina and JoinMama.  You can follow Dr. Mama on Facebook, and on Twitter @DrMamaWit. 

As a professor of Communication at East Tennessee State University, Amber Kinser is an expert on the relationship between gender and communication.  She explores the links between human interaction, gender, and living empowered personal and professional lives.  She gives talks to women in business, student leaders, teachers, and professional organizations on crossing gender divides to cultivate powerful communications among women and men.
