Deborah S. Greenhut is a travel and cultural writer and photographer who is trying to live as many lives as she can enjoy in “retirement.” Her first novel, The Hoarder's Wife, debuted in April 2022 from Woodhall Press and has already received to First Place awards from Speak Up Talk Radio, and a Finalist Award from Reader's Choice Awards.
During her working life, Deborah visited all U.S. states and worked in each of the Lower 48 as a corporate trainer in addition to offering programs across Canada and Western Europe. Early on, she earned a BA from Middlebury College, followed by Masters and PhD Degrees from Rutgers University, where committed herself to literacy education for K-16 students and adult professionals, serving as an Assistant Professor of Literacy Education and Professor in Residence at New Jersey City University and later, Associate Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences at Hudson County Community College.
During 2000-2012, Deborah became a playwright and filmmaker whose works focus on the drama of women’s lives. Her plays, Difficult Subjects, A Good Constellation, Fooling the Eye, Jimmies, The Funny Face Pancake Place, and How I Live. With Terror have been festival selections produced in New York. Additional works have been read in Alaska, New Jersey, and New Mexico festivals, and Difficult Subjects was published in Volume 2 of The Best Plays of the Strawberry Festival, compiled by Van Dirk Fisher. Her film-in-progress, “Across the Ages Dance,” chronicles the first year of an intergenerational dance project in Cambridge, MA. See: www.definingthecapture.wordpress.com
Now that the travel bug has struck, Deborah enjoys being on the road with her camera and a notebook. Chiang Mai, Paris, Havana, Banff, Montana, and Barcelona have lured her eye in the last few years. She is a member of the International Travel Writers and Photographers Alliance (ITWPA) and the author and illustrator of a series of picture travel books for children: Granny On the Road Books.
