About The Author

Kaitlin Calogera

Kaitlin Calogera embarked on a journey of entrepreneurship when she launched A Tour Of Her Own, the first tourism company in Washington, DC to focus exclusively on women’s history. As a licensed tour guide, she recognised a lack of women’s stories being represented in public spaces so she mobilised her community to reframe the traditional narrative through special events and historical tours. With a degree in History and a background coaching women’s athletics, Kaitlin believes in the power of tourism to promote gender equality and education beyond the classroom.

Rebecca Grawl is a professional DC tour guide with more than a decade’s experience in public history, museum education, and tourism and is particularly proud of her involvement as a founding member of A Tour of Her Own, the first tour company in DC to focus exclusively on women’s history. She is a proud graduate of Randolph-Macon Woman’s College, member of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution as well as an alumnae and senior leader with the National Society Children of the American Revolution.

Cynthia Schiavetto Staliunas is an internationally awarded and published fine art and destination photographer based in the Washington, DC area. With a background in psychology and cosmetology, her mission is to revolutionise the way women see themselves through her photography, with a focus on and passion for phototherapy and women’s empowerment. She enjoys travelling the world and learning new languages.
