Areas of Expertise
Rebecca enjoys providing story-driven, informative content while blending past with present. She writes about a wide range of arts and culture-focused content including music history, music genres such as country and blues, creative entrepreneurship, and ancient philosophers such as Aristotle, Socrates, and the Stoics, and how their teachings can be applied to the modern world of art and business.
Arts
& Entertainment
From blues legends of the late 1800s to the birth of the country genre in Mississippi, Rebecca has extensively covered America's broad musical landscape. She also enjoys covering modern songwriting greats from John Denver to Jack White.
Philosophy
Ayn Rand once said, "Every artist is a moral philosopher." Rebecca enjoys providing philosophical content geared towards creatives, from Aristotelian logic and Socratic questioning to movements like the Enlightenment and Renaissance.
Cultural
Trends
Art, business and production, philosophy- all of these subjects drive cultural change, and vice versa. Rebecca works hard with publications to highlight why literary, scientific, and artistic works from previous cultures like ancient Greece have endured for ages, and how our current societal climate can learn from past thinkers.
Business
& Economics
Rebecca brings clarity to the often blurry subject of art as a commodity. She's covered the business side of art as well, with several published works focusing on free market economics and how it can help creatives run their businesses.
History
From art history to history wild enough to be commemorated with art, the influence creativity and free expression has had on cultures through out history needs to be communicated to audiences of all kinds. Rebecca loves it when she gets the opportunity to bring history's inspirational stories and lessons to present-day readers.
