About the Author
Katherine Bouton is a seasoned writer and editor whose work bridges personal experience with practical wisdom, particularly in the realm of health and disability. After a distinguished career at The New York Times, where she served as a science editor and writer for over two decades, Bouton turned her attention to her own journey with profound hearing loss, diagnosed in her thirties. Her acclaimed book, Living Better with Hearing Loss: A Guide to Health, Happiness, Love, Sex, Work, Friends . . . and Hearing Aids, draws from decades of living with the condition to offer empathetic, evidence-based advice for navigating its challenges while embracing a full life. Bouton's writing demystifies hearing impairment, challenging stigmas and empowering readers with strategies for better communication, relationships, and professional success. A graduate of Barnard College, she continues to advocate for accessibility and awareness through her essays and speaking engagements.
