I’ve accepted a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in American Culture Studies at Washington University in St. Louis for 2010-2012. The fellowship—in digital humanities and American culture—is designed to support quantitative textual analysis related to American cultural and literary studies. I couldn’t have asked for a better fit or a more welcoming environment, and I can’t wait to join my new colleagues in St. Louis.

I’m extremely grateful to Rice and to the Mellon Foundation for the two years of support that are now drawing to a close. Particular thanks are due to my supervisor and mentor Caroline Levander, director of the Humanities Research Center at Rice, and to Lisa Spiro, director of Rice’s Digital Media Center and all-around DH wunderkind.

Nothing much should change here on the blog, though it may be a quiet summer as I finish a manuscript. I’ll post updated contact information when it’s available.
