Hannah Sutherland

Biography
Hannah Sutherland was born at 3:46 one morning in mid-July. Only, she wasn't Hannah Sutherland then. Named after her great-grandfather Emmanuel, her mother named her Emily Jane, perhaps to avoid the conflicts ultimately associated with the name Emmanuela, Hannah's Hebrew name. Recently, Hannah has forgotten the reasons for renaming herself "Hannah" (besides her appreciation of palindromes) and because of this has adopted a few more variations of her three names, while also reconsidering the name Emily, its history and its connotations. She now goes by Ella, short for Emmanuela.

Post-Hampshire, Ella lives in Leverett, MA, on a farmhouse built in 1747. She is working with a group of Montague-based locals attempting to found an environmentally-based elementary charter school. She also scoops ice cream at Bart's in Amherst.

Hannah enjoys math, interviewing, making stop motion mirror movies, quantum mechanics, biology, climbing, and mosh pits.
