Autorenporträt
Wanda MacNevin grew up in Downsview, a suburban area in Toronto that includes the Jane-Finch community. While working in the Jane-Finch community, she gained a great deal of experience along with a wealth of information. In 2017, York University awarded her an Honorary Doctor of Laws degree for her lifework. MacNevin has published two other books: From the Edge: A Woman's Evolution from Abuse to Activism (1999) and If I Only Knew... Stories of Teen Mothers (2008).
