Bridgman is also the author of Angel - Homeless in Toronto (2016), Jimmy Tattoo - Homeless on the Streets of Toronto (2016), StreetCities: Rehousing the Homeless (Broadview Press, 2006) and Safe Haven: The Story of a Shelter for Homeless Women (University of Toronto Press, 2003),[1] co-author of Braving the Street: The Anthropology of Homelessness (Berghahn Books, 1999)[2] and co-editor of ''Feminist Fields: Ethnographic Insights (Broadview Press, 1999).[3]

Background

Rae Bridgman was born in Toronto, and now lives in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Bridgman received her Bachelor of Arts degree (Classics) and her Bachelor of Music from the University of Toronto, and her Master's (Interdisciplinary Studies) and PhD (Anthropology) from York University. She holds the position of Professor in the Department of City Planning at the University of Manitoba in the Faculty of Architecture, and is co-director of BridgmanCollaborative Architecture, a Winnipeg architectural firm. Her work spans children's picture books, fantasy novels and scholarly books. She also plays the tuba in Classy Brass, an amateur women's brass quintet.

Bridgman illustrates her fantasy novels with distinctive pen-and-ink and pan pastel drawings. Her books are also unique for their word-play and use of Latin as a magical language.
