{"value"=>"<p>13th Moon, a feminist literary magazine, was founded in 1973 by Ellen Marie Bissert under the auspices of the Writing Organization for Women at the City University of New York. After the second issue, all connections with the university were severed. The journal developed into a prominent literary publication, featuring short fiction, essays, and reviews by women authors, including Adrienne Rich, Eve Merriam, Marge Piercy, Rochelle Owens, and Audre Lorde. The magazine was edited by Bissert from 1973 until 1982, when Marilyn Hacker became the editor. Hacker served as editor for volumes VII and VIII.</p>"}
