Robin Warshaw writes on social issues, medicine and health. In writing I Never Called It Rape, she used pseudonyms for the many women who shared their stories but wrote openly about her own acquaintance rape for the first time. She has never regretted that decision and is grateful to the women (and some men) who have reached out over the years to tell her how the book helped them. Warshaw is a contributing writer for Living Beyond Breast Cancer and writes for other nonprofits and publications. She is a member of the Authors Guild, American Society of Journalists and Authors, and the Association of Health Care Journalists. Her work has received several national awards.
"A deeply disturbing study of date or acquaintance rape and the
myths and cultural attitudes that encourage it.... For women who
have suffered acquaintance rape, Warshaw's book should be
extraordinarily helpful. But it should be read by many others as
well: a painful, provocative, and important work."--Kirkus
"A devastating portrait of men who rape women they know... based on
first-person accounts, scholarly studies and data from a nationwide
survey of college campuses."--Publishers Weekly
