For several years, Elaine Richardson led a turbulent life filled with abusive relationships and trauma-induced choices. She would have seemed like the last person to become a tenured professor at The Ohio State University, an award winning scholar, mentor, and first-rate singer-songwriter-performer; but today she is all of that and more.
