On The Creative-Nonfiction of Composition and Rhetoric: An Interview with Lad Tobin

Michael Michaud

Abstract

In this interview, on the eve of his retirement in spring 2020, I speak with Dr. Lad Tobin about his career and work in composition and rhetoric, his commitment to the teaching of writing, including and especially personal or expressive writing, and his arguments about the continued relevance of creative-nonfiction to composition.
