About

Anita Diamant is best known for her first novel, 'The Red Tent,' which re-imagined the culture of biblical women as close, sustaining, and strong. Her subsequent book, 'Period. End of Sentence,' inspired by the Oscar-winning documentary of the same name, addresses menstrual injustices and celebrates new activists working to end period poverty and stigma. Diamant grew up frequenting the public library in Newark, New Jersey, an experience that greatly influenced her literary career.
