Academic Appointments

Director, Center for Faulkner Studies 2013-present

Southeast Missouri State University (Assistant Director, 2007-12)

As Director, I work in conjunction with Special Collections & Archives to facilitate access to the Louis D. Brodsky Collection. I work with scholars from around the world, both electronically and in person, to assist with Faulkner research. The Center hosts a number of visiting scholars for visits of a few days up to one year, including many from Japan and China. Other duties include budget management, media relations, editing theTeaching Faulknernewsletter, creation and maintenance of two Faulkner MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), and supervision of graduate assistants. These graduate students assist with archival projects, edit books, maintain our web site, aid visiting scholars, and edit the newsletter. I organize lectures by visiting scholars, work with the Digital Yoknapatawpha Project, and give tours of the Brodsky Collection, as well as direct the biannual “Faulkner and” conference.
