Meet the Team Behind Girls That Create
Founding Vision
Girls That Create (GTC) is an independent website providing parenting resources for raising creative girls while also encouraging greater female representation across the arts. Girls interested in the arts and humanities must have support during their younger years, much like their sister counterparts who love STEM.
Our purpose is to nourish future female creators through content on parenting, women creators, creative resources, and supportive environments. We are an ally to all marginalized groups across the arts and welcome all families.
Who We Are
Erin Prather Stafford | Founder | Editor | Writer | Podcast Host
Erin Prather Stafford is an award-winning writer, editor, and podcaster who loves to build communities and tell stories that ignite change. As a mother of two girls and holder of a Master’s degree in gender and international development, she believes improving representation imbalances and supporting girls and women in the arts is key to changing gender disparity everywhere.
Before Girls That Create, Erin was the Executive Producer of the documentary WONDER WOMEN! THE UNTOLD STORY OF AMERICAN SUPERHEROINES. The film had its national broadcast on Independent Lens | PBS and traces the fascinating evolution and legacy of Wonder Woman. It also examines the portrayal of powerful women in mass media and why representation matters.
