Julie Wrinn, Director
Julie Kuzneski Wrinn became director of the conference in 2007 after serving for three years on its board of directors. A native of Indiana, Pennsylvania, she received Bachelor's and Master's Degrees from the University of Virginia. A ten-year veteran of the book publishing business, she held editorial positions at several publishers in Washington, D.C., most notably as managing editor at Counterpoint Press, the esteemed independent publisher now based in California. After moving to Kentucky in 2002, she continued as a freelancer for Counterpoint and had the privilege of editing Wendell Berry and W. S. Merwin. Now living in a house full of testosterone–a husband and two young sons–she relishes her work with an arts organization that focuses on the feminine.
Vaughan Fielder, Web Designer and Program Coordinator
Vaughan Fielder received a Bachelor's Degree in journalism from the University of Kentucky in 2002 and will complete her Master's in Library Science from UK in 2009. An experienced graphic and Web designer, she designed this Web site and those of several other UK departments. In 2005 she received a grant from the Kentucky Foundation for Women to increase awareness about disability caregivers by photographing and interviewing mothers of children with disabilities and creating a Web site with that content. Vaughan has also been a graduate assistant for UK's Institute for Rural Journalism and Community Issues, and an affordable housing market researcher. On staff with the Women Writers Conference since 2007, Vaughan oversees registration, presenter travel arrangements, the Listserv, the Facebook page, and anything else that Julie can't figure out. She and her daughter happily reside in downtown Lexington.
