Lynn Liccardo is a articulate blend of skills, perspective and work experience.... Colleagues describe them as "Lynn Liccardo amazes me with her knowledge of soap operas. Many say the genre is dying, but Lynn is the woman who reminds people what an underrated genre it was. There have been times I've gone to her for help on an essay or trivia, and she helps me with whatever I needed. Did I also mention Lynn is a great writer? Lynn is a great writer, a friend to soap operas and writing in general." and "Lynn is a fantastic writer with great insights into popular culture, particularly serialized storytelling and women's culture. She is also a marvelous media historian whose research into the early history of daytime drama was a tremendous help to me and my co-editors with our essay collection, The Survival of Soap Opera (Univ. Press of Mississippi, 2011). Lynn's contribution to that book will always be one of my favorites."
