Mary Walling Blackburn (born 1972) is an American artist, writer, and feminist who is the director of the Anhoek School[3] and its sister radio station WMYN.[4] She teaches art at Southern Methodist University.[5] She has been described as "“a singer, a tutor, a choreographer, a documentary filmmaker, a tourist, a critic and a translator” with a strong but politically uncategorizable activist streak."[6][7]
Anhoek School
[edit]Blackburn created the Anhoek School[3] as an educational experiment, an alternative to the GRE system. It is an all-women's graduate school that bases its curriculum on cultural production. Tuition is based on a barter system where student labor is exchanged for classes.[8] Its name is a "purposeful malappropriation" of the name Ann Hutchinson, a midwife in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, who was expelled from the colony on charges of heresy, witchcraft and political anarchy.[9]
