Korte biografie
Carla Stevens has kept a diary since she was ten years old, and taught a course about journal writing at the New School for Social Research in New York City. Ms. Stevens lives in New York City and Cornwall, Connecticut, with her husband and cat.

One of the most popular writing classes at the New School for Social Research in New York is "Diaries and Notebooks: Keeping One, Reading Others," taught by Carla Stevens, author of "A Book of Your Own," a children's guide to keeping a diary.

"I think it's crucial to keep a diary," Ms. Stevens says. "It's not just getting in touch with your inner self, but giving yourself a record of who you are, or were at a particular time."

Cute. Slim scholastic from 1967 - I may have read it as child as it seemed vaguely familiar. Isn't it interesting what sticks in one's memory?
