Author Claire Dederer came to book-writing after being a
journalist for about twenty years, working as a reporter, critic, and
essayist. She began as a film critic then developed into a book critic
and a writer on culture. Poser, her 2010 memoir, weaves
together several disparate topics: yoga, motherhood, the legacy of
1970s feminism. I interviewed Claire this week to find out how she
decided to structure Poser around all these themes.
