Jen Gilman Porat is a writer and former clinical social worker whose essays have appeared in The Sun, Hippocampus, Brevity, Longreads, and elsewhere. She’s working on a memoir about the contested adoption of a baby girl she and her husband planned to adopt and were already caring for at home. The book explores how their marriage survived the ordeal—and the high-stakes moral decision it demanded in the face of ethical uncertainty. Her bucket list includes just one item: to dance with John Travolta.
