She is the author of numerous monographs, articles, and collaborative projects in print and digital platforms. She is known for her exploration of interrelations between art and literature, writings on race, higher education, and sycophancy.

Masterclasses allow participants to take a virtual step through I Tatti’s doors and listen in as a senior scholar uses the collection as a departure point to expand on themes pertaining to their own research. Pre-recorded at I Tatti, the viewing will be followed by a discussion around topics touched on during the presentation.
