ABOUT

Kerri Devine is an award-winning essayist, public speaker and community builder who helps women celebrate their shared humanity through storytelling. At events, in her online community @HotinCharleston and through her groundbreaking multi-genre showcase, Midlife Monologues, Kerri gives voice to the growing national conversation on midlife. Kerri believes our best chapters are ahead of us and encourages women to examine their identities unbound from the roles they have long held for others. 

Next, Kerri will be a producer in a new, original production under development by Emmy nominated actress and director, Constance Zimmer and award winning filmmaker, Abby Epstein. ‘The Midlife Monologues’ will debut in NY and LA, realizing their shared passion of amplifying midlife stories for women everywhere.

Kerri continues to advance the dialogue on a woman’s journey through interviews on TV, podcasts, and in magazines and newspapers. She is a national advocate for Menopause Mandate US, co-chaired by Naomi Watts.

She holds an MFA from Queens University and has received two nonfiction awards from Southern literary groups. Her work was chosen by Kelly Corrigan to appear in the anthology Nothing but the Truth So Help Me God: 73 Women on Life’s Transitions. Prize-winning writer Rebecca McClanahan said of her work: “Kerri will not only charm and entertain you, she will help you discover yourself right alongside her.”

Kerri Devine is on a mission to redefine midlife.
