Pamela G. Herron

Poet, Writer, Educator

I am a writer, a poet, and an educator. After living in El Paso, Texas for 18 years, I now live in beautiful Vallejo, California. My areas of research include Confucianism and Daoism and how they apply in the modern world; China and Chinese immigration particularly in the El Paso/Cuidad Juarez area; the importance and diversity of cultural identity; sustainability; and writing and teaching literature for young readers. I regularly present in both the US and China, particularly on Confucianism and gender along with multicultural issues. I am committed to a multicultural approach in all aspects of learning. Please explore my website (still under construction!) for information about my work. My university website also has information on my academic publications

BLOGS AND REVIEWS

When I'm not repairing lions for Spring Festival and Chinese New Year or working in our garden, I am usually writing, or more often, reading and writing about books.

Please check out my blogs and reviews in the links and information below.

Sustainable Living

I consider myself to be a world citizen. I have been interested in sustainable living, organic gardening and farming methods, recycling and re-using since I was a child growing up on a farm in Kentucky. Those priorities have never changed but they seem to have become more imperative in recent years. My concern with living lightly on Planet Earth have colored every aspect of my life.
