Kristina Chew

classics professor :: translator :: blogger :: mother

I’m Kristina Chew, a Classics professor at Saint Peter's College in Jersey City, New Jersey; mother of a 13-year-old son, Charlie, who’s on the moderate to severe end of the autism spectrum; a translator and teacher of Latin and ancient Greek; a blogger, at My Son Has Autism/Autismland (2005-2008), Autism Vox (2006-08), and Change.org (2008-09). I'm happily married to cultural historian James T. Fisher.

I’m currently writing a book about our life on the long road with Charlie and translating the work of two Roman poets, Catullus and Virgil. I also blog about education, disability, and health policy at Care2.com.

As for what this blog---now called We Go With Him---is about, this post from 26 July 2005 entitled Autism: Not Exactly Heaven on Earth But Not a Daily Hell says it best.
