EduShyster is one of the most brilliant, clever, and downright funny bloggers in the pedagogic blogosphere. She is one of the very few bloggers who is consistently able to make me laugh out loud.

For reasons she will explain here, she has decided to reveal her name.

When I met her a year ago, she reminded me that we had first met in 2010, when I came to Boston to talk about my last book. She told me her name. I am terrible with remembering names. I told her that her secret was safe with me because I wouldn’t remember her name anyway.

But now the world, if it cares, knows her name. To me, she will always be EduShyster. Unforgettable.
