AMONG THE MAASAI is “a valuable record, showing both the successes and limitations of education . . . [an] enlightening account of teaching in East Africa” (Kirkus Reviews). In 1999, Cutler set off to Tanzania to teach English at the first school built for at-risk Maasai girls in East Africa. Driven by her desire to replace the risk of rape, forced marriage, and genital cutting with the life-changing power of education, Juliet learned to work alongside local educators and leaders to maximize her efforts in the context of the Maasai culture. Cutler returns to Tanzania regularly and is an advocate for improving girls’ education. All proceeds from the sale of Among the Maasai support education for at-risk Maasai girls.
Juliet Cutler is a writer, an educator, and an activist. "Among the Maasai" is Juliet’s first book, though her literary and professional publications number more than two dozen. She has taught writing in many settings including as adjunct faculty for the College of St. Scholastica in Minnesota. She holds an MA in English from Colorado State University and a BS in education from the University of North Dakota. Juliet currently lives with her husband, Mark, in a community near Atlanta. When she’s not writing, Juliet consults as an education and exhibition specialist for museums, parks, and cultural centers throughout the world. You can learn more at https://julietcutler.com/.
