Breadwinning Mothers

My scholarly writing on breadwinning mothers is currently in process and forthcoming. I will be presenting some of my findings at upcoming conferences and lectures in 2012. Please sign up for updates here.

My research on breadwinning moms, caregiving dads, and changing gender roles at home and at work has also been featured in the press over the past few years. Here are a few articles that may be of interest:
