American Literature, Women Writers, Willa Cather, Ethnic American Literature, Autobiography, and Buddhism
I love teaching the sweep of American literature from traditional Native American creation stories to contemporary novels although I am particularly interested in American women writers and ethnic American literature. I am also the director of Curriculum II, Gustavus' integrated alternative general education program, and am interested in its interdisciplinary approach, its exploration of values, and its creation of a learning community.
I have published and presented on Willa Cather, Thoreau, and diversity and church-related colleges. I love English Country dancing (what you see in Jane Austen movies) and travel (mainly in the US but also England and Japan).
