Creativity, Gender and the Family: A Study of Creative Writers.
Pohlman, Livia
Journal of Creative Behavior, v30 n1 p1-24 1996
Creative writers (n=20) were interviewed to explore relationships between creativity and the creator's life as a parent and/or spouse. The experience of confronting family-related gender expectations influenced many writers. Writers reported benefits from the family's social support alongside restrictions on the solitude and time necessary for independent creativity. (Author/PB)
