Her stories and essays have appeared in The New Yorker, the Harvard Review, and on NPR’s “All Things Considered.”
Braunstein lives in Maine and teaches at Colby College, Harvard University Extension School, and the Stanford Online Writer’s Studio. She is a graduate of Mount Holyoke College and holds an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and an MSW from Smith College School.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
