简介

I have written a biography of Norman Podhoretz, a Jewish-American writer, editor, and controversialist, which Cambridge University Press will bring out as a 'featured book' in the spring of 2010. I teach classes in nineteenth- and twentieth-century fiction, Shakespeare, poetry, survey of American literature, you name it. Hobbies include painting with watercolor and pastel, listening to classical music, hiking and biking, and trying to keep my tennis game from deteriorating altogether.
