I've
been teaching in the English department at CSULA since 1999. My
primary research interests are in Victorian literature and culture.
My current book in progress is tentatively titled "Aesthetic
Citizenship: Poetry and Secret Socities in 19th century Britain."
I also work on the geography of culturally conscious picture
books and am especially interested in Latino picture books focused
on East Los Angeles. I was awarded an American Communities grant
for this project. My other research interests include post-humanism
and animal rights.
I
regularly teach a wide range of courses, including English
430: Children's Literature, English 468: Victorian Literature, English
446: The British Novel, English 441: Major Critics, and English
500: Introduction to Graduate Studies. She also teaches various
graduate seminars on a range of topics including "Victorian
Cultural Studies," "Victorian Sexualities,"
and "Victorian Children's Literature.
