A Professor of Rhetoric at Carnegie Mellon University, Linda Flower pioneered the study of cognitive processes in writing. Motivated by the need for a more integrated socialcognitive approach to writing, her recent research has focused on how writers construct negotiated meaning in the midst of conflicting internal and social voices. Flower is Director of Carnegie Mellon’s Center for University Outreach, a founding partner of Pittsburgh’s Community Literacy Center, and a member of CCC’s National Service Learning Committee.
