Current Research:

Current research is in feminist issues of place and space, particularly material feminism, in American women authored utopian fiction from 1920-1960.  This study examines a number of often unstudied texts to explore how this period bridges the feminist processes of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to the feminist movement of the 1970s.
