About Me

Hope White is a writer, researcher, creator, mother, and professional rabbit-hole follower from Baltimore, Maryland.

She has been writing since childhood, was first published statewide around age ten, and has since built businesses, founded large online communities, appeared in local news and television, and written The Mouse and the Garden.

Her work tends to begin with a question she cannot leave alone. She writes about history, politics, motherhood, grief, culture, education, creativity, local stories, and the strange little details everyone else seems willing to walk past without asking about.

She is especially interested in primary sources, old newspapers, overlooked women, complicated history, and figuring out who benefits when everyone agrees not to look too closely.

Curious by nature, opinionated by experience, and usually reading the footnotes.
