Research

My research interests center on visual communication, spanning broadly from information and ideas conveyed in pictorial form to the graphic presentation of text (e.g., typography, data visualization, professional image stereotypes, postcards as local history primary sources).

Articles, presentations, and documentation of past projects are available under a Creative Commons license (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) on my SelectedWorks page in EIU's institutional repository, The Keep.

Funding & Grants

Mid America Arts Alliance/NEH on the Road Grant for “For All the World to See: Visual Culture and the Struggle for Civil Rights” Exhibit, Project Director (September 1-October 20, 2016)
