Rosa del Duca
Rosa del Duca is a writer, journalist, teacher and musician. She grew up a tomboy in rural Montana, where she joined the Army National Guard when she was seventeen. During her six-year contract, she became not only a conscientious objector, but a feminist and unlikely rebel. That tumultuous time is the focus of her memoir, Breaking Cadence: One Woman's War Against the War, forthcoming from Ooligan Press in May, 2019. Rosa's shorter creative work has been published in CALYX, River Teeth, Cutbank, Grain, the Los Angeles Review, and others. She is also a singer songwriter and co-founder of the folk band Hunters.
