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.

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.
