My name is Charlotte Taylor Fryar, and I’m a writer, historian, educator, and herbalist based just outside of Washington, D.C.

My work explores the intersections of history, ecology, and racial justice in the American South. My first book, Potomac Fever: Reflections on the Nation’s River, an essay collection exploring the natural history & racial history of Washington, D.C.’s waterways, is out now! You can purchase it here.

I’m available for freelance writing assignments and speaking events. Get in touch, or subscribe to my newsletter.
