Dr. Claire Miller Colombo teaches writing, theology, and the arts at Southwest and directs the seminary’s Center for Writing and Creative Expression, which publishes the Open House arts journal Soul by Southwest. Halfway through her Ph.D. program in English at the University of Texas, she realized she would rather be studying theology. She ventured onto the Southwest campus in 2010 to do just that, and never really left.
