DIANA GRABER
Diana is the author of "Raising Humans in a Digital World: Helping Kids Build a Healthy Relationship with Technology" (HarperCollins Leadership) and founder of CyberWise.org (aka, No Grownup Left Behind!) and CyberCivics.com, two organizations dedicated to digital literacy skills. A long-time media producer with an M.A. in “Media Psychology & Social Change,” Graber developed (and still teaches) Cyber Civics at Journey School, a public charter Waldorf school in Aliso Viejo, CA, that her own children attended. Her paper, "Media Literacy Education: A Developmental Approach," was published in the Journal of Media Literacy Education (JMLE) and she was honored with the "2017 Media Literacy Teacher Award" from the National Association for Media Literacy Education (NAMLE). She is a regular contributor on digital media topics for Psychology Today, HuffPost and others, and is regularly called upon by the media to comment on tech topics. She's been an Adjunct Professor of Media Psychology teaching "Media Psychology for the 21st Century." Today she speaks at schools, conferences, community organizations and conducts teacher workshops (virtually and in-person).
Graber earned a B.A. in Communication Studies from UCLA and a M.A. in Media Psychology from UCLA/Fielding Graduate University. Visit her press page.
