Charmion Gustke Hearn

Charmion Gustke Hearn is an associate professor of English and Honors and coordinator of the First Year Seminar Program at Belmont University in Nashville.. Her journey with Willa Cather began in a graduate seminar class taught by Ann Romines. Since this time, Cather has become her North Star, guiding her scholarship, service, and teaching. 

"I believe that Cather's literary legacy is an essential component of American literature, one that should be nurtured and promoted around the world, now more than ever."
