A Discussion With Patricia Knight Meyer about her adoption story and how she processed her trauma through writing.
Patricia Knight Meyer’s story seems foreign compared to the happy renditions of adoptive families brought together for happy holiday photos. She was adopted quietly, without proper paperwork. This left her in a state of limbo for a good portion of her life, worried that if anyone looked hard enough she would not be able to prove her identity or her citizenship. Over the course of her life she sought out her birth family, but even that connection was not a simple solution to her problem. Discover how she navigated life without documentation and how her writing helped her process her experience.
