I’ve done a lot of editorial work over the years, and it’s exciting to help emerging scholars translate their passion into publishable projects. I especially like helping them find their passion as writers and teachers. As a teacher, I’ve worked closely with talented graduate students, many of whom are publishing their own work and teaching at colleges and universities like University of Michigan, Clemson University, Union College, and Rikkyo University in Japan. You can read about some of my efforts here. Lately, I have devoted a good deal of energy to public humanities, an emerging framework for humanistic scholarship that promotes collaborative research projects between academics and community arts & civic institutions. I am currently chair of the English department at Emory University, where I have taught since 2006, and I am the co-founder and co-director of Emory’s Disability Studies Initiative. I am drawn to stories of people who apparently played a minor role in history (mad prophets, sleepwalking servants, itinerant performers, human curiosities) and try to imagine the world’s major historical forces and conflicts through their eyes. In my work, I try to capture experiences that have been pushed to the margins of history: sleep, madness, freakishness. I am an English professor and a writer specializing in American cultural history, with a focus on issues of health, race, and disability. If anyone is a local and has suggestions.
