Lyn Robertson teaches in the Department of Education of Denison University, a liberal arts college in Granville, Ohio. She began her career teaching seventh grade English where she discovered students achieving at low levels in reading and writing. This led her to extensive study of literacy, particularly within linguistic, cognitive, and social frameworks. Robertson has taught reading and about reading to people from preschool to adulthood. The mother of a daughter with severe-to-profound hearing loss, she has authored one book, Literacy Learning for Children Who Are Deaf or Hard of Hearing, and articles about listening and reading. She also teaches in the A.G. Bell First Years program and serves on the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Academy for Listening and Spoken Language.
