Rosenthal Award, American Academy-Institute of Arts and Letters, 1983.National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, 1985.She has been the recipient of numerous other awards, including: Kauffman has won a Pushcart Prize twice: once for short fiction and once for her poem "Mennonite Farm Wife". That dream has turned nightmare where I live, and in many areas of the country. The vision of farming as a peaceful way of life, surrounded by idyllic and pastoral landscapes, is a deeply-rooted dream in American life. Her passions include fighting the pollution of industrial agriculture, which has been the focus of much of her recent work, including the book Trespassing Dirt Stories & Field Notes (2008), and the mixed media project, "The Violence of Plowshares." This 2006 exhibit draws on her experience in Michigan with factory farms, using items from her childhood growing up on a tobacco farm and other found objects. Her unusual approach to creative writing workshops includes creating deformed books, constructions with found objects and original or "borrowed" text, creative alphabets, micro-collections, and engineered books. In her classes, Kauffman challenges her students to re-think the definition of " book" and ways in which to use text to communicate ideas. Kauffman was instrumental in establishing EMU's Creative Writing Master's degree program, which has received national attention through its unconventional approach to writing. She has taught in the English Department at Eastern Michigan University (EMU) in Ypsilanti, Michigan since 1988. Kauffman was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
