Robbins has been a high school English and drama teacher at the Berkshire Waldorf High School for the last fifteen years. Prior to that, she worked as an editor for SteinerBooks/Anthroposophic Press. She is the founder of Keats & Co. “I have always believed in the necessity for an authentic engagement with literature and the development and validity of every one’s voice,” Robbins says. “My work with my students has been punctuated by dialogue and passionate debate, and with a focused effort on crafting writing that speaks both to the texts studied and in a voice that is true to the student. I strive to accomplish the same in my own writing.”

Robbins has developed curriculum around the Romantics and Transcendentalists, among many other subject areas including Beowulf and Chaucer, Dante and Shakespeare, Virginia Woolf and Jorge Luis Borges.. Keats and the Romantic poets have always been favorites, but after the sudden, tragic death of her husband, she entered into Keats’s poetry and the notion of liminality in a life-changing way. From that moment, Romanticism and liminality have been touchstones. In 2017, the Bread Loaf Journal published her personal essay––“Fragments in Liminality: A Lover’s Discourse.” This has since been expanded into the book, A Grief Sublime.
