Up next in our 2026 Summer Interview Series, we had the pleasure of speaking with Ann van Wijgerden, author of “Sins of Our Fathers” which was published in For Page & Screen Issue 9. Join us as we talk with Ann about how she weaves her life and memories through both her poetry and fiction writing. Ann explains the importance of education both in terms of advocacy and human rights work as well as on the smaller more personal scale of always growing and learning as writers. You can find out more about Ann and her work at the links below!
