Writer to Writer Hannah Rodabaugh and Rebecca Evans

Hosted by Ken Rodgers. Today, Ken plays host to his usual co-host Rebecca Evan, and guest Hannah Rodabaugh. Hannah Rodabaugh is the author of the poetry collection Lost Cathedral (Cornerstone Press) and four chapbooks of poetry, including We Don’t Bury Our Dead When Our Dead Are Animals and The Leonids. Her poetry has been featured in The Indianapolis Review, Camas Magazine, Glassworks Magazine, Plant-Human Quarterly, The Westchester Review, EcoTheo Review, and Berkeley Poetry Review. She is the recipient of a Literature Fellowship from the Idaho Commission on the Arts and has twice been an Artist-in-Residence for the National Park Service. She lives in Boise, Idaho where she teaches at Boise State University, the College of Western Idaho, and The Cabin. Rebecca Evans is a Pushcart Prize-nominated essayist and poet who writes difficult, heart-full guidebooks for survivors. She earned MFAs in both creative nonfiction and poetry from University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe. Her debut memoir in verse, Tangled by Blood, bridges motherhood and betrayal, untangling wounds and restorying what it means to be a mother. Along with Tangled by Blood, she’s authored a collection-length poem, Safe Handling, and a flash essay collection, AfterBurn (Moon Tide Press, January, 2026). Rebecca is also the co-editor of the poetry anthology, When There Are Nine, a literary tribute to the life and achievements of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and a co-host of the Writer-to-Writer show on Radio Boise. Rebecca is also a disabled veteran, weaving disability and military experience throughout her work. She teaches workshops through Narratively and the Boise Library System and curates monthly gatherings for writers and creators and also offers empowerment courses to high school teens in the Juvenile system. When not creating, you can find her dancing with hummingbirds in her backyard.
