I am a Professor of Literature at MIT and participant in the Global Shakespeares initiatives there. A former President of SAA and current co-editor of the annual "Shakespeare Studies," I've edited the volumes "Alternative Shakespeares 3" and Blackwell's "Concise Companion to Shakespeare o Screen," authored the books "Collaborations with the Past: Reshaping Shakespeare Across Time and Media" and "Passion Made Public: Elizabethan Lyric, Gender and Performance" and more than 40 scholarly articles. I work as a dramaturg and theatrical consultant, including past work with the RSC, NYTW, Actors Shakespeare Project, PTP and Compagnia de' Colombari.
