ABSTRACT:\ This essay, which merges the boundaries between academic\ and creative writing, looks at how Gerwig{\textquoteright}s film adaptation of Little\ Women leaves room for Jo{\textquoteright}s queerness through the figure\ of the noble\ artist. At the heart of this mixing of adaptation, gender, and sexuality\ with an important memoir on art-as-activism is the question: What\ does it mean to be an artist? And, more importantly, what\ does it mean\ for queer female artists to see themselves on screen?\
