My scholarship and teachingrange across a number of topics, periods, genres and styles from scholarship in 19th century American literature and modern American drama and an interpretive biography of Theodor Seuss Geisel, to more theoretical writing about national narratives, imperial stateexceptionalisms, bio-politics, comparative and transnational AmericanStudies, to edited volumes, special issues of academic journals, introductory editions, and nonacademicpolitical writing. Over the past 24 Summers I have directed the Futures of American Studies Institute at Dartmouth, an academic summer institute dedicated to presenting new work and critiquing the field of American Studies.
