ABOUT

A writer, librarian, curator and death doula-in-training, Lachrista Greco is a snowball of rage and softness.

Living on Ho-Chunk Land (Madison, Wisconsin), Lachrista is a consultant to organizations and universities on preventing digital violence (and teaching survivors how to cope).

Her specialties and interests include: digital violence/sexual violence prevention and survivor support, curating and cataloging digital activism and online movements, learning disabilities/neurodiversity, Italianità, and trauma-informed healing.

Lachrista is most known in these internet streets for being the human behind @lachristagreco (previously @theguerrillafeminist and @guerrillafeminism), which has over 200K followers. You can read more about GF here.

She has self-published two books: the first, an anthology called, Olive Grrrls: Italian North American Women & The Search For Identity (2013), in which she was the editor, and the second, a book of poems titled, Leftovers (2015). Her writing was also published in the anthology, Post-Traumatically Stressed Feminist (2017). Lachrista is currently working on a new book of poetry called, Lift Me Out of the Wound. Her memoir, The Guerrilla Feminist: A Search For Belonging Online and Offline is coming out in March 2025 from Iskra Books.

Lachrista lives in Madison, Wisconsin (with pieces of her heart in Italy and Duluth).
