Author Biography

T.A. Mahon-Haft

T.A. Mahon-Haft is an ardent, devoted humanist, a father, a partner, a teacher, an environmentalist, and an unapologetic progressive. He seeks to provide a voice for the voiceless and illuminate the humanity lost to mass incarceration and social stigma. He holds a doctorate in sociology, with an emphasis in criminology. His outspoken advocacy and teaching towards criminal justice reform afforded him the legal attention that landed him his current participant observer position in the largest state penitentiary on the East Coast. His commitment continues now, aided by this unique intersection of roles and a heightened understanding of the deprivation and dehumanization designed into the system.
