I am a nineteenth and twentieth century US historian who has primary research interests center on the relationships between organized labor, intellectuals, and workers in American society. My current manuscript, a revision of my dissertation, is an intellectual biography of the mid-twentieth century labor essayist and novelist Harvey Swados. Future plans for research include a study of labor, race, and organized labor in late nineteenth and early twentieth century Richmond, Virginia. I have taught a wide variety of courses at Binghamton, including courses in contemporary US history, race in the US since the Civil War, Asian American history, and US immigration history. I would also like to develop courses in modern American conservatism and the role of the US in East Asia, from the revolutionary period to the present.
