Mark Bilbrey My areas of special interest and expertise include Creative Writing (Poetry), Poetics, Modern and Contemporary American Poetry, and Early American Literature. |

 |
Dean Karpowicz My specialty is American Literature, with interests in Modern and Postmodern studies and Speculative Fiction. I also teach creative writing and composition, and of course, run Straylight, where students can intern. |
 |
Amy Kushner To earn my PhD, I wrote a dissertation which focused on women's "wasting illness" in late nineteenth century British Literature. I am still very interested in how female maladies, especially those considered "psychosomatic", are portrayed in literature, from the Romantic all the way in to the Postmodern period. As far as my teaching specialties, the classes I most often teach here at UWP are Writing for Business and Industry, Introduction to Literature, Composition and Writing, Women Writers, and Survey of Modern World Literature. |
 |
Mary Lenard My teaching interests are: Nineteenth-Century British literature, both Romantic and Victorian; the British novel; British women writers; children's literature; and young adult literature. I am also currently Composition Director and teach the Teaching Composition course (ENGL 489). |
 |
Maria Martinez I specialize in gender studies, ethnic studies and Latina literature. |
 |
Patrick McGuire I have no specialty. Or, rather, my specialty is that I know a wide breadth of English and American lit. I say this modestly since I know that I have much to learn especially from my younger colleagues. My graduate university (NYU) insisted that we know the full tradition. This, of course, just a year or two before the canon wars exploded the entire enterprise. I consider myself lucky to have avoided those wars, and luckier still to have colleagues who have survived them and can teach me. |
 |
Jay McRoy I specialize in Cinema Studies, Contemporary Literature and Cultural Studies. |
 |
Gwendolyn Miller My specialty is writing, especially writing concisely. |
 |
Dana Oswald I specialize in early British literature, including both Old and Middle English, with secondary interests in theories of gender, sexuality, and the body. My recent scholarly work focuses on medieval monsters and on rhetorics of the body in Anglo-Saxon England. |
 |
Suzanna Schroeder I specialize in technical writing and in creative nonfiction writing; I also teach composition, expository writing and Caribbean literature. |
 |
Bruce Stone My specialty is fiction writing, and I teach a variety of writing courses, as well as literature and literary analysis. The works of Vladimir Nabokov and of Canadian fiction writer Douglas Glover are among my research interests. A library catalogue entry might use the following subject headings to classify me, in this order: Prose, Fiction, Form, Style, Literature (19th-century, 20th-century, 21st-century), Postmodernism, Transcendence. |
 |
Carole Vopat I specialize in Holocaust Studies, Women's Studies, Multicultural narratives, Creative Writing: Fiction, Traumatology |
