About Me
Jeremy Adam Smith is senior editor of Greater Good magazine and author of The Daddy Shift, forthcoming from Beacon Press in Spring 2009. "Forty years ago, a man who wanted to share child-care equally with his wife would have been called 'deviant' and a wife who wanted him to would have been condemned as an 'unnatural' mother, " says historian Stephanie Coontz, author of Marriage, a History: How Love Conquered Marriage. "Jeremy Adam Smith's The Daddy Shift shows how far we have come and how much we have to gain by completing this revolution in marriage and parenthood." Jeremy is also co-editor of The Compassionate Instinct, forthcoming from W.W. Norton & Co. in 2009. His essays, short stories, and articles on parenting, popular culture, urban life, and politics have appeared in Mothering, The Nation, San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco Bay Guardian, Utne Reader, Wired, and numerous other periodicals and books. A former stay-at-home dad, he lives in San Francisco with his wife, son, and all their friends and neighbors. He can be reached at jeremyadamsmith(at)mac.com.
