Allison Wolfe (born November 9, 1969) is a Washington, DC-based singer, songwriter, and zine writer who has been the lead vocalist for several punk rock groups including Bratmobile and Partyline. ==Background== Allison Wolfe and her sister Cindy were born identical twins in Memphis, Tennessee, on November 9, 1969. Together with their sister Molly, they grew up in Olympia, Washington. Their parents divorced when they were all still young children, and they were raised by their mother, Pat Shively. A radical feminist and self-described lesbian, Shively founded Olympia's Eastside Women's Health Clinic in 1981. It was the first women's clinic in Thurston County,〔 and throughout Shively's two decades of work it was the target of relentless anti-abortion demonstrations.〔 The protests could be harrowing: Wolfe's mother endured verbal and physical abuse, and death threats forced her to go to the clinic armed and wearing a bulletproof vest.〔 (The EWHC was razed in a fire in 2005, set by a still-unidentified arsonist.)〔 Pat Shively died of ovarian cancer in February, 2000,〔 and Wolfe credits her as being a lifelong influence, a feminist role model "almost too big to live up to."〔 In 1988, Wolfe spent time as an exchange student in Thailand's Krathum Baen District. She returned to attend Evergreen State College in Olympia, and later the University of Oregon at Eugene.
