JOANNE WILDGOOSE

After grade 6, our family moved to Tuxedo and I spent Grades 7 and 8 at Tuxedo Park School. In October of 1965, my father was transferred to Toronto and I went to North Toronto Collegiate, graduating in 1970 from grade 13. I went to Queen”s for a B.A. in English (1974) and from there to Windsor for a law degree (1977). After the Call to the Bar, I practised with Lang, Michener, a Toronto firm, until 1983 and then switched to teaching law at Windsor until my son Ian was born in 1986. I married Craig Brown, a lawyer in Toronto in 1985 and we have three children, Ian, 17, Duncan, 15, and Lauren, 8. Along with a colleague, I founded the Centre for Child and Family Mediation in 1989 and served as co-director and mediator doing child welfare mediation until 2003. I switched from law to teaching in 1996 and since then have taught special education and E.S.L. at inner city schools.

I work half-time in order to do volunteer work at my children’s schools and, if I’m being entirely honest, to have an hour or two to myself.  Looking forward to the week
