Caitlin M.S. Buxbaum

I am a writer, teacher, and "former" journalist born and raised in Alaska, currently pursuing an MFA in Writing for the Screen from Antioch University Los Angeles. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching Secondary English from University of Alaska Anchorage and a Bachelor of Arts in Japanese Studies and English with an emphasis in Creative Writing from Gustavus Adolphus College. In my three years as a small-town reporter, I wrote more than 600 stories for the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman newspaper. I have taught or substitute taught just about every subject at every grade level in 20 different schools, including English as a Foreign Language online through VIPKid. In 2019 I founded Red Sweater Press, through which I have published nine collections of poetry and short stories. From January 2020 to January 2024, I served as president and vice president of Alaska Writers Guild. I am interested in script supervising as well.
